No matter what I do I cannot get more than about 150mb down on the virgin line. It should be 300mb ish. If I plug direct into the virgin router I get that speed.
Can('t) believe this router can't rout(e) more than 150mb
No, me neither. My 6 year old Vigor 2860 rattled along quite nicely at 220Mbps on a Virgin connection. The
claimed performance
for the 2862 (Firewall on) is 400Mb/s
However, you're not the first to have troubles with throughput on the 2862. See:
https://forum.draytek.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=23347
All I could suggest, is:
Save the configuration.
Reset to default
Make the bare minimum changes, to allow it to work with the VM Hub. (DHCP on WAN2) MTU is 1500 for Virgin, IIRC)
Use your shortest, bestest cables and connect only the VM Hub, the 2862 and a test PC
Use a few different speed tests.
For completeness, set VM Hub back to Router mode and confirm speed.
If it should happen to be OK in this minimalist configuration, then it would be a matter of making changes one at a time, until it isn't.
If it's still dire, then it's a question for Draytek to answer, or the shop from where you bought it...
