Which firmware ? was created by clever_trevor
Hi - I have the 2860vpn router & is great.
I am on BT infinity 2
I see new firmaware released with different modem codes - so which is best/ right one?
As on the public download draytek recommend vector 2 but on the login account page says for UK SEG recommend vector 1.
Then within each firmware is 3 options for modem files - default & 2 other options.
So if anyone can help me figure this out & what is best then I would be most grateful?
Vigor 2860n-Plus
Vigor 2860Vn-Plus
Vigor 2860ac
Vigor 2860Vac
Vigor 2860L
Vigor 2860Ln

I find that Vector2 works best for me on ADSL2+, higher sync speed & more stable compared to the non-vector firmware.
BT infinity 2 should definitely work best with vector2, afaik that's needed for G-INP to work correctly (and if it doesn't, you get much higher latency)

Thank you - I am now on vector 2 - seems stable.
( I see there are 3 options in modem code, default & 2 others so have selected to higher value code)
