Firmware & Tools Updates
Due to the continuous evolution of DrayTek technology and
emerging risks, router firmware updates may be issued.
Please consult the DrayTek web site for more information on newest
firmware, tools and documents: www.draytek.co.uk (For

Regional and Network Compatibility
For all models, please check that you have been supplied with a device intended for your geographic region and
networks. Hardware and software varies by region, as well as local support and warranty services. To be sure of
compatibility and local support, ensure that you are buying the correct product through authorized channels.

This section will guide you through installing the router’s port connections and
fitting the router securely, either to a wall using the supplied mounting hardware,
or into a 19” rack with the optional RM1 rack mounting kit.
Before starting to configure the router, you must first connect up the cables.

1. ADSL/VDSL Connections: Connect the VDSL/ADSL interface to the Modem
or DSL port of the external splitter/microfilter (not supplied) with the
RJ-11 line cable. In some cases, your RJ-11 DSL socket will be built-into
your phone line socket on the wall and you won’t have a separate
microfilter/splitter.
WAN2 Connections: Connect the cable Modem/DSL Modem/Media
Converter to the WAN port of router with Ethernet cable (RJ-45).
2. LAN Connections: Connect a LAN port of the router to your computer or
switch.
3. Wireless Antennas: Screw the supplied wireless antennas on to the
antenna connectors on the back of the router.
4. Power Supply: Connect the power adapter to the Vigor 2865’s PWR socket
on the rear and plug the power adapter into a suitable mains socket.
Turn the Vigor 2865 on using its power switch.
5. The router will start up. After completing the system test, the ACT LED will
light up and start blinking once per second to indicate that it is ready for
use. (For more detailed information of LED status, please refer to section 3.

The supplied LTE antenna should be fitted to the magnetic antenna base before
connecting the antenna to the router.
There are two LTE antenna connectors on the unit; if only a single antenna can
be installed, use the LTE antenna connector adjacent to the power switch
(highlighted below).
Before installing the SIM card, turn the router off. It should not be fitted while
the router is powered on.
When installing a SIM card into the router, un-screw and remove the SIM card slot
cover. When inserted, the SIM card contacts should be facing downwards with
the notch on the left side pointing towards back of the router.

The SIM card slot is designed for Standard size SIM cards only, fitting a Mini or
Micro SIM without a Standard size SIM card adapter could result in damage to the
SIM card slot.
Push the SIM card into either slot until it ‘clicks’into place, with the SIM card’s
contacts facing downwards like so:
Vigor2865 LTE routers have two types of antenna connector; the LTE modem
(black antennas) use the inner SMA antenna connectors. The Wireless LAN (white
antennas) use the outer RP-SMA antenna connectors.
These must be installed onto the correct antenna connectors for normal LTE
signal and normal Wireless LAN functionality.
The supplied antennas should be installed to the connectors as shown:

DrayTek Vigor 2865 series routers have keyhole type mounting slots on the
underside to hang the router on, using screws attached to a wall or other
surface.
1. A template is provided in the Vigor router packaging box to enable you
to space the screws correctly on the wall
2. Place the template on the wall in the desired position and drill holes
through the cardboard template at the marked points
3. Fit screws into the wall using the appropriate type of wall plug for the
wall material
Note
The recommended drill diameter is 6.5mm (1/4”).
4. With the screws installed, the router can be slotted into place

3. .4 4 R Ra ac ck k M Mo ou un nt t K Ki it t I In ns st ta al ll la at ti io on n
The DrayTek Vigor2865 series router can be fitted securely in a standard 19” 1U
rack mount space using the RM1 Rack Mount Plate (available separately). When
fitted, the router is held firmly and cannot be removed, pushed back or fall off
the bracket accidentally.
The router must be fitted into the bracket before you fix the bracket into your
rack.
To fit it correctly, locate the groove around the edge of the front panel of the
router. The front of the RM1 bracket slides into this groove, therefore preventing
the router from moving once fitted.
Once the router has been dropped into the groove, you can fit the bracket into
the rack using the screws supplied.

This section provides examples of how to initially access the router and configure
internet access for the most common types of Internet connection in the UK.
If the instructions in this quick start guide do not allow you to get online with
your ISP or type of Internet connection, there are additional guides available
from the Product Knowledgebase on www.draytek.co.uk.
Note
To access the router, your PC will need to either get its IP
address using DHCP or have an IP address in the 192.168.1.x
range.
For details on how to change this, please refer to the “Trouble
Shooting” section in the User Guide.

4. .1 1 A Ac cc ce es ss si in ng g t th he e R Ro ou ut te er r W We eb b I In nt te er rf fa ac ce e
Open a web browser on your PC and type https://192.168.1.1.
The https:// prefix ensures that your connection is encrypted using SSL so that
your session data cannot be intercepted. Without that prefix, your data passes in
clear text.
You may get a warning from your browser (IE, Chrome, Edge, Safari etc.) about
your server (the router) having an invalid certificate. Your browser will demand
further confirmation or exception before allowing access. The warnings will look
something like these examples.
An example of how to access the router via HTTPS with Mozilla Firefox:

14
An example from Microsoft Edge, click “Continue to this webpage” to proceed:
Most other browsers will present equivalent warnings. In each case, following the
prompts/links will allow you to access the router's web interface. It is still
encrypted with SSL/TLS.
Note
This warning appears because the router's default certificate is
'self-signed' rather than issued to you by a certificate authority
who has verified your identity.
A self-signed certificate means that you cannot verify the
identity of the server, but as it's your own local router, that
shouldn't be an issue - your connection is still encrypted.
The router login prompt will then request a username and password to allow
access.
The factory default login details are:
Username: admin
Password: admin
