Hi Forum Members,
First off, hello as I am new to the board.

I bought a Draytek 2920Vn and am looking to connect this to my BT Infinity link. I have trawled Google and looked for ways to connect this router - not too much luck. Lots of info on the 2850 though. I bought the router having done some research that it will work with BT Infinity. However when I get to configuring for WAN, all I get is Ethernet as Physical connection mode. I believe I should be using VDSL here but cannot select anything other than Ethernet. I have moved to 3.6.3 of the firmware.

I am just hoping I haven't spent £200 odd on what is a useless piece of kit.

Regards, Vince.

Babis,
Excellent - 2920Vn now working over PPPoE (using Ethernet connection mode). Supplied by BT credentials and green status for WAN 1.

Thanks for your help and the pointers.

Regards, Vince.

Welcome!
TIP: If you have the 80/20 you can try wan2 because the wan1 is 10/100 based...the wan2 is 10/100/1000
