Modem Router for VDSL + PIA VPN

mattyj1085 · 13 Aug 2019 at 21:36

I'm looking for recommendations for a new modem router

It needs to be able to :

Be the modem for my Vodafone VDSL service
Setup VPN with private internet access
Have 2 VLAN's - LAN 1 sunet - Direct internet access, LAN 2 subnet - VPN access

I was thinking something like a draytek vigor 2850

Would that be up to the job?

You will need to have a word with voda about providing you the login details for there network.
I left Voda last month and when the chap phoned me up to enquire why i was leaving i told him i wanted to run my own SW router and voda wont pass the logins details.
He said i could have got them if i asked, however this seems a grey area - some get them .. others have a fight. and i couldnt be arsed with them to be honest.

I now run pfsense with a vigor 130 "modem" - and its fine (plusnet) has all the vpn and other stuff but its not an easy setup.

ive got the details from voda already, I have a TP link modem router connected at the minute with a draytek 2820 connected to that doing the VPN but wanted a all in one device that can do the lot.

Draytek 2862 would be the best Draytek option.
