Hi all,

I have a Vigor 2850Vn router/modem, where the modem has stopped synchronising at my VDSL. (The router is out of warranty)
As a fallback, I have used the router/modem my provider has given. The provider modem cannot be set in bridge mode, but has enabled PPPoE passthrough.
I have set the LAN of the provider's router to use address 192.168.2.x (the modem has 192.168.2.1).
The draytek 2850 uses 192.168.1.x for the lan. I have disabled WAN1 (2850's VDSL modem). and I have configured WAN2 as PPPoE passthrough.

Everything works, and I can access the internet from devices on both routers (the draytek ones get addresses in 192.168.1.x, and the provider router ones get addresses in 192.168.2.x).

My problem is, that from Draytek's LAN, I cannot see the configuration web page of the modem. When I use the address 192.168.2.1, nothing happens.

How can I fix this?
