Routing and NAT on same modem will bring you a connection dancing every time. A trick with FPT is you need to clone modem's WAN interface MAC address. And you have to use both telnet to configure bridge mode on Zyxel (@!...@!#! Zyxel) but Zyxel seem to be most stable modem to run with FPT because they're using Zyxel DSLAM too ;)
Viettel some time block port 80 for incoming connection...but some time not. I don't know that's their policy or just misconfiguration. With NetNam, I can use PPPoE on both WinXP and Linux (Fedora 9/10) to connect with their FTTX (fiber) but not success with pfsense which run on FreeBSD 7 Seem that VDC is the ISP that easiest to connect and run service at our side, no need any trick.
