Can you restore the config of a Vigor 2820Vn onto a draytek vigor 2820n ?? just my router is the Vn type. thanks. Just if I need to buy one as these ones are cheaper, thanks.

Sorry for posting another new topic as technically its a new q! as I already have a topic open for a different Q, thanks. :oops:

I don't see why not as long is the same firmware at both modems (& also bear in mind the firmware release notes i have posted) ... it will just be missing the the voip settings ... so It should work ...

if not works due to firmware changes & mismatching ... see the post below how a user shorted his back up between two 2820s

Have you upgraded correct the firmware? (using *rst* files & 3.3.5.2 before update to latest?)

If is not any other reply in your thread soon i would say to contact the [url]support[/url] before you get a new one because as you have understand IF your backup is not from a clean installation OR there is firmware mismatching (even are the same models) ... bugs may carry to the new machine ... but in general yes should work
