Looking at the supported list:

http://www.draytek.co.uk/download/support/USB_Dongle_Support_07102014.pdf

It would appear that the VODAFONE K5008 USB dongle is supported on the Draytek 2925, however I've configured the WAN3 port to use the same properties as I used with my laptop using the 3G/4G card to no avail.

Using GiffGaff on a PC the settings are simple:

APN: giffgaff.com
PPP Auth: CHAP
PPP User: giffgaff
PPP Password: <BLANK>
Modem Dial: *99#

This works fine on the PC using the vodafone software, but when I translate this to the Draytek I cannot get an connection.

Does anyone know a way to debug this as the logs are showing nothing helpful.

Hi

I have the same combination of 2925n router and K5008 modem. Did you ever get any success getting these two working together?

Thanks

Clive

Hi Clive,

Nope, sorry tried with support a few things but it was easier to swap it with another dongle:

I got this on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370958243494?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Worked first time.

Regards Gareth
