Advantages: Features

Disadvantages: Completely unreliable as a VPN concentrator

DO NOT USE THE DRAYTEK VIGOR 2820 IN A COMMERCIAL INSTALLATION.

The router is not stable as a VPN concentrator and simply locks up with the activity light still flashing.

With over 6 months of ongoing support ticket with Draytek and many change this, try this firmware, change of hardware, still this 2820 router fails to be reliable.

We have used Draytek routers for many years without any problems so no this is not a general bitch about this vendor. The bitch is about this router which is touted as a successfully replacement for the 2800 series, which it is clearly not. It simply is not a reliable router.

The Draytek Vigor 2820 is NOT a commercial or enterprise grade router. Do not purchase it for this purpose.

Bring back the 2800 series... Never ever in 6 years have we had a problem with a site equipped with the 2800 router! and we have many...
