    Hopefully someone can answer this

    I just got a vdsl upgrade from Vodafone and have the hg658c router I also have a block of 8 ip addresses

    First question

    Can I set the router/modem up as just a router with no nat getting my first ip from the block and then using the lan ports to route the other public ip addresses

    Second question

    Can I use a Cisco 887 in place of the hg658c with Vodafone's link and would anyone have a sample config for this

    Thanks

    887 or 887VA? Manuals suggest the standard 887 doesnt support vectoring. Domeld says it works though. If you can use the cisco solo, do that.

    If you cant:
    Bridge Huawei
    Connect to WAN on cisco

    Cisco will get the first of your /29 (assume you meant 8 with 6 useable) from the vodafone RAS, then you can statically assign the rest of the block to your internal devices that you want to be public.

    Itll do vectoring, so you can use it solo, drop the huawei.

    Follow the other threads on here to configure it. Vodafone still use PPPoE for VDSL I think so itll be PPPoE over PTM on VDSL2 with vectoring.

    It works without problem (over 60 deployed over the country).
    Make sure you will get new 887 va as a old version you could get only up to 30 Mb (this same procesor as 1901 router). New version can support up to 100 Mb (cpu usage 99%)
