Hi guys n gals  :)

I've set up a think broadband line quality monitor and getting 100% packet loss meaning the router (ZyXEL VMG8924-B10A) is not responding, is it possible to set it to do so>?

Can anyone help, please?

P.S. I Use Comodo Internet Security which has a powerful firewall on...might be that?

thanks in advance

This works for me:
Maintenance > remote MGMT > Trusted Domain tab
80.249.99.164/28
78.129.174.185
One of those IP's is for TBB the other is f8lure.mouselike.org

Maintenance > remote MGMT
Tick box = ICMP Trusted domain

The difference there is the router will now respond to any ICMP ping, not just from TBB.

I believe you need to add the trusted domain before you can tick that box.

Not sure if this is relevant to your BQM issue.
I had the same situation when changing from a ZyXEL VMG1312-B10A modem/router setup to VMG-3925-B10B router/1312-B10A modem configuration, solution listed in this post:
https://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php/topic,25096.0.html

Note from later entries in the post that it's now working, hopefully this will remain the case, my 3925-B10B used to work for a while after each re-configuration but then stopped responding, the solution as listed was a complete cure only minor annoyance being that it won't survive a router re-boot.
