2860 and pfsense was created by vampsthevampyre
I currently have my 2860 acting as a dsl router with dhcp enabled and its only connection is to a pfsense router.

From what I understand I should be able to bypass all the 2860's internal routing and just pass all DSL traffic direct to the pfsense router and have it control everything.

As soon as I try to follow any instructions I lose all connection. Does anybody have an idiots guide on how to set up pfsense and a 2860 so they work happily together.

regards

Ian

A vigor 130 might be better suited to this job, or a cheap HG612 from ebay.

However you need to get the 2860 into bridge mode, the following may help.
