Vigor 2762 - VPN as default route was created by turbozilla
Hi guys!

Does anybody know whether I can set a VPN connection as default route only for some LAN IPs?

The only setting I can find is "Change default route to this VPN tunnel ( Only active if one single WAN is up )" but I'd like only some of my local devices to navigate through the VPN, rather than all of them.

Thanks in advance! :D

I would normally suggest "Load Balancing / Route Policy" ... but this feature appears to have been removed from the 2762, along with the rest of the Routing features :cry:

Yes that's what I noticed too. I'm actually complaining with them because I checked the specs on https://www.draytek.com/products/vigor2762/#specs where it clearly says it does support Policy-based Routing. The website is not the UK one but still it's global so I think information there should be globally valid... or it should clearly state otherwise. I relied on that page before buying the router and now I'm stuck with a product that doesn't fully meet my needs... :|

Oh so it's more than just the routed subnet option that has gone, surely they can't just remove features like that?
While the site you linked isn't the UK version, the user guide here https://www.draytek.co.uk/support/downloads/vigor-2762/send/557-vigor-2762/1504-ug-v2762-v101uk does seem to list the Route Policy options for a 2762.

Maybe if you downgraded to firmware 3.8.9.2 and set up your routing, then upgraded to 3.9.2 again it might work? I know it's not ideal but it did work for me with setting up my routed subnet. The CLI commands still seem to be there in 3.9.2 to let me set up the route too - but I didn't try doing it via the CLI since it's still working at the moment.

edit: I also wonder if you are able to install the firmware Vigor2762 Series 3.9.2_MDM1 from https://www.draytek.com/support/latest-firmwares/ on the UK version. It has the same modem code as the one I am currently using.
