Yes. It is now added on firmware version 1.0.0.46. It can be seen under
Device Mode on Advanced setup."

Seems like your first job is to make sure the firmware is up to date on
both devices and then put the Netgear into modem mode surely. It'll make
the subsequent steps easier as well.

I speculatively imagine that if you put the Netgear into modem mode then you will probably need to use PPPoE on the Draytek rather than DHCP. This would be better as the Draytek should then get the public IP address on the WAN interface rather than the double-NAT in my last post.
