FireBrick 2700 Configuration run-through: Difference between revisions

*A standard issue AAISP ZyXEL P660-D1, in bridge mode (Go to: Wan - Wan setup, mode Bridge, Encapsulation RFC1483, Multiplex LLC)
*Another ADSL router set for bridge mode
*A modem such as a Draytek [[Vigor_120 Vigor 120]] (firmware 3.2.4.3 and above)
 
Note: You cannot just use any of these devices on any line type: There are combinations that will work, and combinations that will not. You MUST read the link above. In short, BT lines can auto-detect PPPoA or PPPoE, so will work with pretty much anything. BE lines on the other hand are hard-coded to either PPPoE OR PPPoA. For a BE PPPoE line, a simple bridge mode router like the ZyXEL is the correct choice. For a BE PPPoA line, you need a device that can do true PPPoA on the wire <-> PPPoE on the LAN to the FB. The Vigour 120 is one of the only devices that can do this.
