That is all disabled.

I wondering if I'm just looking in the wrong place in the 2925's web interface for the router stats. The only place I can see (limited info) is:
Oneline Status >> Physical Connection

and I get the Profile, State, Speeds and SNR listed


I did come up with a sneaky method of removing the extra switch though.

Set LAN 3, 4, 5 to vlan1 (rather than vlan0), attached them LAN2 (disabled DHCP), and then I can do:

LAN3 <---> Vigor 130
LAN4 <---> WAN1
LAN5 <---> spare cable for laptop to see Vigor 130 web interface

As you have found, there is a big difference between "DSL Status" and "DSL Stats"

The former is what everyone apart from wilsodg seems to get displayed on the router, so it is a bit puzzling.

nope - my bad.
I thought the OP could not even see the status with the Profile, State, UL/DL, SNR up/down.,
That's all I get to see, but to be fair to Draytek, they don't claim to show any more (albeit that would be nice).
mbanes idea looks interesting, so I'll give it a go.

Arh, we were at cross purposes. I was almost hoping to be able to get a route back over the WAN port to the 130's web interface, and thus gain the ability to telnet to it from my desk, rather than having to go to the loft, armed with a laptop. Guess I could assign a spare wireless SSIS to LAN2.

Although with my sneaky use of ports 3, 4 & 5 could I set up some sort of route between them?

You need a switch between the 130 and the router, and then typically a dedicated management VLAN connected back to the switch (and hence modem). If you buy instead the 2760, this can be done with the built-in switch of course. You need to add a static route via SSH back to your internal network ranges.

Not sure if draytek monitor this, but surely the publishing of full stats back to 2925 is something they could do with jafloc?
