It appears firmware version 3.9.2.3 has been released on Draytek Global (not UK). Has anyone tried it yet?

Yep, bit disappointing really, wasnt expecting much based on release number, but after 2.5 months id expect a bit more, still no USB devices.
No difference in anything for my basic setup.

I've just been sent a beta to try 3.9.2.3_RC1 r1404_92684/v6 so sort of testing it.

Well the draytek ran over 300hrs without an issue then my virgin media connection went down. It failed to failover to the BT line properly and all external internet access ipv4 and ipv6 couldn't be reached. Internal network fine as per normal. Even when virgin came back zilch. Release and renew didn't fix anything so the router had to be rebooted. Today Virgin went down twice and it failed over and back correctly. Now on the beta firmware. Since there's a fault on the virgin line it should get tested over the next few weeks and days.

So I have been running a 3910 with 3.9.2.2/v6.

This thread has confirmed what I am seeing.

WAN P1 - Not used
WAN P2 - Not used

WAN P3 - Used - Fixed IP

LAN P4 - Connected to internal switch Untagged LAN1/LAN 3 WITH VID/LAN4, WITH VID

WAN P5 - Used - Fixed IP
WAN P6 - Used - Fixed IP
WAN P7 - Used - Fixed IP
WAN P8 - Used - dhcp

LAN P9 - LAN 2
LAN P10 - LAN 2
LAN P11 - LAN 2
LAN P12 - LAN 1

I have VM's connected to different ports. Only those machines connected to LAN 1 can browse the internet. All machines connected to LAN 2 have terrible throughput perfomance. Routing rules do seem to work as expected with LAN 1.

Other than IP range (192.168.10.nnn - LAN 1 and 192.168.20.nn LAN 2 etc) these two lans are configured the same.

If I change a P9 to from LAN 2 to LAN 1 for example. All machines connected to P9 have proper internet access. Change P9 back to LAN 2 (and reset the connections) the machine have no internet access, or very slow access.

It does appear that the 3910 running 3.9.2.2 cannot handle multiple LANs and VLANS.

I have had to reconfigure to run with only LAN1. Not much point of having and expensive multi LAN router if it does not do what it says on the box!



I wonder what would happen if you just lan2 going by an external switch. You shouldn't have too. Yup we are Draytek unpaid beta testers.

Which beta version are you testing?

I'd prefer them to get the basics working first before adding new stuff. :)
