connecting Draytek 2830 via Point to point Lease connection was created by a.perry2294
I have a customer who have had a point to point leased line (wires Only) between 2 sites installed but I am having issues configuring the routers. Each router is at the latest software release and both are 2830
Each site have a separate subnet
Site A = 172.16.0.0/24 mask 255.255.255.0
Site B = 172.16.1.0/24 mask 255.255.255.0
The link has been tested by connecting Site A to a Netgear router with DHCP enabled and just plugging in a laptop in to site B where it gets an IP address and can access the internet so the link between sites is working.
I have searched for any information regarding this configuration without any luck.
I have attempted various configurations outlined below
Site A router configuration.
LAN IP address = 172.16.0.1 Mask 255.255.255.0 DHCP enabled with a pool count of 50 starting from 172.16.0.10
WAN 2 Static/Dynamic IP 10.0.0.2 (Site B) Mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway 10.0.0.1(Also tried with the address to be in the same subnet as the LAN)
LAN Static Route 172.16.1.0 Mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway address 10.0.0.1 WAN 2
Site B Router configuration
LAN IP address = 172.16.1.1 Mask 255.255.255.0 DHCP enabled with a pool count of 50 starting at 172.16.1.10
WAN 2 Static/Dynamic IP 10.0.0.1(Site A) Mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway 10.0.0.2 Also tried this with an IP address in the local subnet
LAN Static Route 172.16.0.0 Mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway address 10.0.0.2
I have the 2 routers currently connected next to each other and Tried with a Straight Ethernet cable and a Crossover Cable (not using the lease line I guess when they can communicate locally using what is effectively a longer patch lead will not be an issue.
My thought process on the above configuration
LAN straight forward.
WAN 2 10.0.0.1 or 2 respectively this is the destination IP address configured at the opposite WAN and the Gateway is the local address configured on each WAN 10.0.0.1 or 2 respectively locally
Static routes to get to the subnet 172.16.0.0/24 (or 172.16.1.0/24 )go via the WAN 2 port on 10.0.0.1 or 2 respectively
Each site have a separate subnet

My first thoughts for tracking the problem down would be: -
Either cable should work because all the ethernet ports are fully auto negotiating.

(Ok, full disclosure, I've not actually done this exact setup! But I do know how it should work in principal. Also I'm on 2860 but still should be about the same)
The config look correct to me as do the routing tables.
Now, not exactly tackling the big picture here but do you have "Disable PING from the Internet" checked in System Maintenance >> Management ? Because that would stop trace route working on the 2nd hop. This will not fix the problem of course but might help with diagnosis.
Another thing, there is a checkbox that should be checked in Firewall >> General Setup , Accept routing packet from WAN: IPv4 because without that it'll be doing NAT only over the WAN ports and blocking any routed packets. Actually, now I come to think, I a bit fuzzy on how to stop it doing NAT, I think the static route sorts that out though. Not certain if the firewall filters need to be on of off.

Thanks again for your reply and appreciate any help and tests to try
I have disabled the Firewall and the call filter/dater filter on both routers for testing but still no connection
I have enabled Ping from the internet on both routers
The check box Firewall>> General setup Block Routing packet from WAN IPV4 is unchecked on both routers
I still get the same trace route response
Router A
Trace Route Unspecified ICMP to 172.16.0.1
1 10.0.1.1 10MS
2 Request Timed out
3 Request Timed Out
Router B
Trace Route Unspecified ICMP to 172.16.1.1
1 10.0.0.1 10MS
2 Request Timed out
3 Request Timed Out

Well, I admit it, I'm kind of out of ideas here.
