Configuring a Draytex Vigor 2865

stephen1812 — Thu, 02 Jul 2026 09:52:10 GMT

Good morning, I have just signed up for PlusNet FF. I want to use my own router which is a Draytek Vigor 2865Vac and checked the configuration guides which are generic. I was wondering if anyone is using a Draytek router and if so do you have screenshots of relevant setup pages? Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Also is there a compatibility list for devices that work on PlusNet Full Fibre?

Basically any router with an ethernet WAN interface that supports PPPoE will work

I use a Draytek 2927.

Follow this guide (for BT but largely similar for Plusnet)

https://www.draytek.co.uk/support/guides/kb-fttp-wan-setup

Key things to know:

Username is as you sign in to the member centre with @plusdsl.net at the end.
Password is as you sign in to the member centre
There are no VLAN tags needed (the ONT effectively does this)

It does work, I'm using it now!

One other thought.

Once you have the 2865 working, if you have one of the faster full fibre packages you may find you don't quite achieve full speed.

If so, have a read of this
