Checkthe VLAN settings for VPN profiles and the LAN ports. The firmware updates on Drayteks will sometimes reset some of the more obscure settings to factory defaults. Also check routing settings for your LANs.

Draytek tends to think along the lines of a building with multiple tenants each with its own subnet to a common router(s). Reconfigure for 10.0.1.1 thru 10.0.2.254 with netmask 255.255.254.0 for a single subnet and adjust DHCP accordingly.


I have 7 LANs, some of which should not communicate with each other. That would be a short-term but not an option for me in the long run. The router worked correctly before I imported the update. Maybe I should downgrade the firmware and wait until draytek react on this.


Make sure draytek firmware is up to date and check it`s sync (192.168.2.1) also it uses lantiq chipset,I use this modem as cabinet is ECI, if you have the nighthawk app you can see the throughput between the modem and router, this is a good starting point. I find that 130 will sync @ 70000 and see a throughput of 67,its drppoed since I moved from BT so going back,but generally they do work well together.however that drop is weird. You could maybe try a 30-30-30 reset of the router to complete clear it`s setting and start again


Be aware in Northern Ireland most cabs are Huawei, the Vigor is Lantiq based, ( think ECI cab) so you will loose speed as they are not wonderfully compatible you are not the first person to loose a chunk of speed using a Lantiq modem on a Huawei cab.. The Vigor is great with other ECI cabs, just not Huawei ones, (if you are on a Huawei) you need a broadcom based modem. The chipset in the Vigor130 is a VRX-268 the same as in BT's old ECI modems that you can get for a tenner or less on Ebay... Id stick to the HG612 you were using tbh or pick up one of ebay and flash it with the latest firmware so you can see the stats (got to kitz.co.uk to do that) or use a Broadcom based modem.
