Hi,
I have been trying for the last 5 hours to get my DG834 to connect using a VPN to my work Draytek Vigor 2800. Before reading the article linked above, I had tried every single combination available to me by way of configuration. I have set up lots of VPNs before mostly through pfSense, Sonicwall and Netgear. My DG834 has a VPN connecting to another DG834 at present and it took me about 5 minutes to set up and it's not gone down yet. This (admittedly rather old) Draytek is a completely different story. Now I'm not knocking the Drayteks, they seem to offer huge features for their price and I'm hopeful that whatever doesn't work with my Draytek has been fixed in future releases but that being said, if anyone has a DG834 VPN'd to a Draytek Vigor 2800, could you please save my sanity and whats left of my hair and post the setup you have that works.
The error message that I'm getting logged on the Netgear is:
sending notification PAYLOAD_MALFORMED which essentially means that the passwords don't match. Well after painstakingly entering them too many times to count now, I can promise you that they do. Any ideas what else this error points to? Incidently, it would be nice if Drayteks logged to the backend GUI as the Netgears do....
Many thanks.
