    Hey all, Just looking for some advice before I take a dive in. I'm currently looking at the GT-AXE11000, however, this model doesn't support setting a VLAN ID for internet access. I came across asuswrt-merlin, from my understanding, this would allow for VLAN ID setup via CLI but haven't been...

    First of all, thanks Merlin for your hard work and amazing news. Even if AX88U Pro doesn't make the cut (though I wish it does), it's still a great thing to have VLANs implemented. At least for me personally it at minimum delays the investment and effort in something like Unifi or pfSense for...

    Hi, So my issue is that I'm trying to use 2 vlans here to create 2 private networks. realistically if I got one of those two working I would be really happy. I have a pfsense box as my router and the vlans are configured on that. I have my netgear r7000 with freshtomato and vlans work perfectly...

    I was trying to setup a proper VLAN layout that would match my former network topology (ERX's + Ubiquity APs). I spent 3 full days reading though dozens of threads on this forum only to conclude: there is something REALLY NOT RIGHT about the `vlanctl` tool on my router. It's running the latest...

    I am currently running in router mode with a guest ssid running on a separate network from my main network and SSID. If I get another router/firewall can I connect the asus to it and have my guest network and my main network going over this connection to the new firewall. I am guessing that the...

    My VDSL2 ISP requires a VLAN in their provided modem/router. I want to put the modem/router in transparent bridge mode and provide the PPPoE info in my ASUS router. Is there a way to specify a VLAN id for the WAN port or am I forced to use (waste) one of the LAN ports and configure it as the WAN...

    I'm using two RT-AX routers as a mesh and they're both in AP mode with an OPNSense install being my main router/firewall. Is there any way for me to tag the ports and SSIDs on the APs to assign them to specific vlans?. I know there's a lot of threads about implementing VLANs and that there will...

    Afternoon folks Up until now I had never dared manipulating the routing table, leaving the necessary changes to be handled by the relevant firmwares/users scripts. But then I came across an issue with IPTV (again). There appears to one entry in the ISP's router table that is not captured by...

    Hello! I wanted to check if this idea made sense/was possible before I break apart my working network and start flashing and reconfiguring things. I currently have an AC86U that I'm using as a router/switch/AP, and an old N66U that isn't currently in use. I have a single ethernet run between my...

    In the 386 code base, is the best place to configure VLAN and ports (robocfg and brctl) the services-start? I see there are some config files that can be modified (i.e. .conf.add) but not sure if any of them cover that. I want the settings to apply after the ports and VLANs have received their...

I have an EdgeRouter X that's acting as my Router, DHCP, firewall, etc. I have an ASUS RT-AC68U flashed with Merlin 386.3_2 that's setup in access...

    I ended up replacing my Router with Opnsense and turned my two Asus routers into AP mode. And since I’m about to dive into the world of VLANs, very specifically VLAN Tags, the info I sadly cannot find anywhere is if the router is in AP mode, would I still have to create the VLAN Network also on...

    Hello there, before venturing into the not very friendly field of VLAN setting up on Asus, I'd like to ask to people that already tried about their experience. I did some researches here on the forum and I jumped into quite old VLAN posts, unaswered posts, and speaking frankly, I did not found...

    Hi All, Hoping to get some clarification and solution to my network setup. I currently have a Edgerouter X and a UniFi AP. My network consists of three VLANs (Main, IoT, and Guest). The main Lan can access IoT but the IoT can't access the main Lan. The guest VLAN is isolated but has access to...
