Hi Mike I've had problems like you describe with a draytek but most of them worked ok. There's a v2 out now which may make a difference. Try the tp-link single port one - my tests were that it's marginally slower than the draytek, but it's in bridge mode by default. Can give you more details about getting the draytek working later if you're interested in persevering with it. Regards Russell Hurren Managing Director Zero Point Networks PTY LTD +61 8 6262 9376

Hi Folks,
Seeking recommendations for a good dsl modem that supports all of the typical dsl variants that also supports a decent pppoe passthrough bridge mode. No wireless, no multiple ethernet etc - just adsl port and 1 ethernet port is ideal :-D
I recently bought a couple of draytek vigor 120, and hope I don't upset anyone by describing it as a piece of crap. I've wasted too much time trying to get them to work like a bridge, reliably and without losing config updates every second reboot. I have two of them in place and almost in production (project goes live ib a couple of weeks) at location almost 4 hours drive away, and I really want to bin them and replace with something that I have more confidence in :-}
Any suggestions, comments, (and abuse, if you feel the need, ;-) are most welcome!
Thanks,
Mike.
