O2 Broadband Setup 2830 was created by mark_s
Hi guys,
Is there a link to the configuration / Setup for O2 Broadband in the UK

Is this a Draytek help or a O2 Support help.

Any Help would be appreciated.

ADSL2 using Router.
I will log into SUPERUSER later to see if i can gleem any settings.

Is there a setup guide already out there.


Thanks

Problems Problems until i installed the latest firware update.

Firmware Version : 3.3.6.1sb
Release Date : 1st July 2011

At First the connection would keep dropping but after installing the latest firmware update it seemed to work. (Not Fully Tested only worked for 20mins as i ran out of time).
Now after receiving the Router as my first post was pre arrival i was also guided to the setup wizard by o2, before i done the update this failed and then we used the following settings.


Draytek Router Settings
To access the internet settings configuration section, click WAN > internet access.

Click the PPPoE / PPPoA tab

Select disable and click ok.


To enter the settings for the O2 connection click the (MPoA) tab.

Draytek Router Settings:

The first option is enable or disable for this tab, select enable

Multi PVC channel: Channel 2

Encapsulation: 1483 Bridged IP LLC

VPI: 0

VCI: 101

Modulation: ADSL2+ / ADSL2+ annex M

RIP protocol: disabled

Bridge mode: disabled

WAN IP network settings: auto / static IP address, this is dependent on whether the customer has a static IP or not

Router name: Blank

Mac address: Default MAC address.

DNS server IP: Enter manually if using a static IP.

o2 Broadband Settings for Draytek 2830n

The only way prior to the firware update to connect was to to do a factory reset.
Put the settings in again and wait for about 5 mins.
The online status would change from

READ
HANDSHAKING
INTALSTART (Something like that)
FAIL

Now after installing the Firmware Update it connects straight away.

My Previous Firmare was 3.3.6 (April) if i remember there was very little time between the updates and i can see why now lol

Hope my experience helps others too.

Set the modulation to ADSL2+ (G.992.5) or multimode, if it doesn't sync with Annex M then maybe your line doesn't have Annex M enabled on it.
