VPN no longer working between two FVS318Gv2
I have two FVS318Gv2 at two offices with a VPN tunnel between them that have worked fine until yesterday when the Internet provider was changed at one location. Broadband ISP settings were changed an...

I finally had AT&T tech come out and replace the Pace 5268AC with a Motorola NVG589. Set it up as "pass-through" and now everything works fine. The tech said that his was a common problem for business customers using the Pace 5268. Apparently it just can't be made to pass VPN traffic.

Thank you, but I have already delete and re-created VPN setting on both sides.
The issue seems to be with the AT&T supplied Pace 5268AC RG. Even though I've put the FVS318Gv2 in the RG's "DMZ+" and disabled everthing else that I could find, it still seems to be blocking GRE packets (although tunnel is set up.)

Hi Froese,
Thanks for your reply.
Could you tell me the internet connection mode,PPPOE,ADSL or other?
Thanks.

It's ADSL (AT&T U-Verse).
Now I am experiencing other problems: long load times for certain website (sometimes they even time out, but work when re-tried.) Not sure if it's a DNS thing or related to this...which I am begininng to suspect now: something timeing out and resetablishing every couple of seconds (and it seems to affect all Internet traffic).

Hi Froese,
Suggest you use DDNS.
Thanks.- FroeseOct 27, 2016Aspirant
Our WAN IP from AT&T is not static, but it has not changed since installation nearly 2 weeks ago, and I've read that other U-verse subscribers have reported that their IP didn't change for years, so I don't see why this would be necessay.
