Hey guys,

A few weeks ago, was getting intermittent drops. Would resume after time or a reboot of the Vigor 130

Openreach came out twice now, confirmed no issues with the copper etc after moving to a new port range in the cab.

ISP re-issued new static IP

The last few days no connection at all, today openreach advised they don't think it's a them problem and is my setup. My setup has been stable for over a year, the problem is today trying to prove to them it wasn't my end I tweaked some settings and kinda forgot how it 'should' be so when they come back out tomorrow even if they fix the issue it could be my end preventing it from working.

Here's the pictures of my vigor config, basically just looking for someone to check my Vigor 130 bridge mode setup is correct for TalkTalk Business FTTC I've looked at it for so long today I fear I may be making a stupid mistake.


Settings provided by talktalk

  • VPI: 0
  • VCI: 38
    • MTU: 1432
    • DNS settings: Set as automatic (or similar)

      If you need to enter these settings manually then they are:
      • Pimary DNS Server: 62.24.128.17
      • Secondary DNS Server: 62.24.128.18
        • Encapsulation: PPP over ATM (PPPoA) using VC-MUX
        • Modulation Type: Auto

Hi there,

not sure if you have fixed that already, but a few comments:

1) screenshot of MPaA/ Static or dynamic IP - why MTU is 1432 and not 1492? Besides, I believe you can leave the default value of 1520 and OPNsense will set that to the right value (for PPPoE is 1492). Also, if it's bridge mode, do you need that enabled at all ? Have you tried to disable it?

2) screenshot of Internet Access >> general Setup - have you tried to configure the tag value 101 under the section 'Service' rather than under 'Customer' ?
