Hi All
I used to have a lot of issues with latency when using my own router and the Vigor 130 ADSL modem. After some checking i got it working (so far no issues at all and online gaming works perfectly).
I assume that you know how to set up your own router etc.
For settings on the Vigor 130 modem please see these pictures - i believe the key was MTU 1492.
Default username and password is admin/admin at 192.168.2.1
Good Luck!

Your title and text talks about ADSL, yet the modem seems to be set for VDSL.

The DrayTek Vigor 130 is a ADSL2+/VDSL Modem.
The Key setting on any Fibre modem is VLAN ID or Tag = 101.

But the settings are different for ADSL and VDSL, so not sure what point your post is trying to make.

Hi!
My point was to help others with the same issues that i used to have. The default settings of the DrayTek Vigor 130 VDSL modem gave me low latency from time to time (every 15min to 30 min). When i did the update this was solved!
Unfortunately I can't update the header for the first post or even remove it.

I have the same setup but can’t get an ip address in pfsense. Any advice on what settings you used in pfsense to get this working?
