So my account was fully migrated to Sky from O2 on Wednesday this week with zero warning. The first I knew about it was when I had no internet access that evening and after a quick phone call to O2 was told it should only take a few hours.
Cue 24 hours later and according to Sky my line was transferred and active....only I still had no internet access.
I have a Draytek Vigor 120 connected to an Asus RT-N16 running Tomato for my ideal home network. The Draytek was setup to simply pass the net connection onto Tomato to deal with and all was well. Now it seems Sky use different settings (PPPoA I've been told with VC MUX modulation) to O2 which was LLU-based.
After much faffing around I've finally got VERY slow internet connection by setting the Draytek to PPPoA passthrough and Tomato set to "log in" using PPPoE. The modem's web interface shows it's syncing at 20meg but I'm not getting anywhere near that. Since making this change the Draytek only seems to want to connect to my Asus router's WAN port at 10mb half duplex instead of 100mb full duplex like it did before and takes literally 10 minutes to connect so I wonder if this is part of why the net appears to be really slow. Plus each time I restart the thing I seem to get a completely different WAN IP. I know it's not supposed to be a static IP but previously the IP never really changed.
Is it possible to get the Draytek setup to work with Sky ADSL2+ without PPPoE in the same was I had it setup on O2?
