How to configure the draytek vigor 2860 for tpg nbn


DrayTek (Traditional Chinese: 居易科技) is a manufacturer of broadband CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), including firewalls, VPN devices, routers and wireless LAN devices. The company was founded in 1997 by a team of experienced engineers who decided to form their own company and create what they feel are superior network products. Their earliest products included ISDN based solutions, the first being the ISDN Vigor128, a USB terminal adaptor for Windows and Mac OS. This was followed by the ISDN Vigor204 ISDN terminal adaptor/PBX and Vigor2000, their first router. Their head office is in Hsinchu, Taiwan with regional offices and distributors worldwide.

DrayTek was one of the first manufacturers to bring VPN technology to low cost routers, helping with the emergence of viable teleworking. In 2004, DrayTek released the first of their VoIP (Voice-Over-IP) products which has become one of their key areas. In 2006, new products aimed at enterprises debuted, including larger scale firewalls and Unified Threat Management (UTM) firewalls products however the UTM Firewalls did not sell in sufficient volume and the UTM products ceased development and production.

DrayTek's product line offers business and consumer DSL modems with support for the PPPoA standard compared to the more the widely supported PPPoE for use with full-featured home routers and home computers without more expensive ATM hardware. PPPoA is used primarily in the UK. Most Vigors also allow a virtual private network (VPN) connection directly to the router, without the need to pass the VPN packets through to a VPN server running on a computer. With appropriate configuration it is possible to make a VPN connection remotely to a Vigor router, use Wake on LAN to start up a computer connected to it, and make a remote administration connection to control the computer.

DrayTek was floated on the Taiwanese OTC securities market in 2001. Google Finance Page.

Vigor 2200USB

DrayTek released the Vigor2200USB router in the UK in 2002, a unique router for ADSL, the only router able to be connected to BT's newly launched USB-modem based ADSL service. The router did not incorporate a modem, but allowed certain specified USB ADSL modems to be connected; at the time many Internet Service Providers required their USB modems to be used rather than allowing connection of ADSL equipment directly to the telephone line ("wires-only" service). The product was devised in the UK by SEG Communications and developed by DrayTek engineers. This was the only router supporting a separate USB modem, and was the only router compatible with BT's new USB ADSL service. These factors made it very popular and firmly established DrayTek as a key player in the broadband Internet hardware market in the UK.

Wireless LAN Central Management

DrayTek released their wireless LAN management system in 2014. It allows their compatible wireless access points to be centrally managed.

Vigor 2860Ln Series

DrayTek released the Vigor2860Ln in October 2015 which was DrayTek's first router with 3G/4G cellular services built-in. It was otherwise based around the existing Vigor 2860 series.

IPv6

In 2010, DrayTek began adding IPv6 support to its range of routers. By 2012, most of its top selling models support IPv6 in both native (dual-stack) and broker tunnel modes. In 2012, DrayTek also published their book Real World IPv6 [1]. As of 2015, all current DrayTek products support IPv6.

BT MCT SIN 498 Compliance

For the UK market, DrayTek were granted MCT approval for their VDSL2 products in 2015, a mandatory requirement for products connected to the UK network operated by BT Openreach (used by most ISPs).
