I have been following this with interest as I have been wondering about replacing my Netgear router. Then I Googled Draytek.

Have you got a working approach?I used to be a Draytek fan, but other than the 120's won't touch them now. I found the VPNs to be unreliable and the routers to have really bad NAT handling characteristics. Long-term NAT sessions (typical of VoIP) would eventually break requiring a power cycle - which Draytek handily provided via a timer mechanism... Maybe things have changed since the 2800 series, who knows. The 2600's were even worse. Fortunatey now I don't work with people who just want ADSL, so that problem has mostly gone away for me. What do you need scripting for? Initial provisioning isn't that hard... Gordon
