638712 2008-02-08 20:34:00 Hi all, wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction with this issue:
Our workshop runs draytek2600vg routers that support VPN tunnels to link all our sites together. We have recently had 2 fail, with their adsl not functioning. I would like to use a couple of old M11's that we have an abundence of to connect to the adsl, then use the draytek to do all the routing and VPN connections etc... My question is how do I get the M11 to pass all traffic to the draytek and from there to our internal network? I have configured the draytek (.6.1) as the DHCP server etc.. and have come unstuck trying to point it to the M11 (.6.254) as the gateway. I think I may need to set up a bridge between them, but am unsure. I work on cars for a living :) I'm sure this is possible, but not sure which direction to go in from here.
Thanks all, Blair.

From what I can see the ADSL modem is the WAN port.

Have you thought about using IPCOP or maybe replacing the M11 / draytech with the likes of a Linksys AG300 / AG310 which have VPN end point support built in?
