I've just migrated from BT to Be.

Previously, the Draytek used to be connected to the BT ADSLMax line and used to sync at 6.9Mb. Since the switch to Be and with the same 2820 it syncs at 6.9Mb on 6db profile whereas the BeBox (Thomson 585v7) syncs at a more speedy 8.5Mb again on (a reported) 6db profile. So I've put the Thomson into Bridge mode for the extra 1.5Mb and so the 585 is attached to the WAN2 port on the Draytek. Problem is that I can't access the management area on the BeBox.

My internal network address on the 2820 are 192.168.10.x and the BeBox is on 192.168.1.254. I can do this with a Tomato router because it does DNAT but someone says the Draytek can't do that. Of course I guess I could put another router in there which will route it and to the necessary NATing but it seems overly complicated. Are there any other ways of doing this or getting the Draytek to sync at a higher speed.

Hope you can help.

Tim
