I thought I'd share this little trick...

Due to me being an idiot I created a firewall set which stopped me from being able to administer my Vigor 2860 via a web browser. Despite my best efforts I was not able to get around the issue.The error I received was


I deduced if I disabled the default data filter I would then be able to login. To do this type at a SSH prompt:

Code:
ipf set -d 0

You should then have web admin access. I thought I'd share this for anyone else that might be an idiot :lol:
You can then correct and re-enable your data filters in Firewall >> General Setup

I don't think my problem is the same as I haven't created a firewall rule but I find I can't access the web page on my Vigor 2860 intermittently and don't know why.

I get the following error:

404 Not Found !!!

The requested URL was not found on this server.


The strange thing is that I get this error on my macbook but not on my iMac connected to the same network. Also, I get it if I use Safari or Firefox but not Chrome which accesses the normal log-in dialog.

In the past when it has happened, it has spontaneously cleared after a few days.

I am puzzled

I have solved it by accessing http://192.168.1.1/weblogin.htm instead of http://192.168.1.1/

Hi, I am using a Draytek 2820VN and for some reason after a number of hours, I lose the ability to login via http://192.168.1.1/weblogin.htm. I believe this is since I updated the firmware.
However, I don't want to start rolling firmware without understanding if any members have experienced the same.

Once I lose access, it is total no matter what system or device I try to access from.

Any advice, comment, greatly appreciated

Regards

Bungy
