    VLAN with L2 switches and Asus Aimesh

    Hello there, I did not need to write or run any scripts, all my VLAN segmentation was done on PfSense GUI frontend. And my ASUS routers are on a single VLAN dedicated to WiFi, I have not found any good solution to pass through multiple VLANs over different SSIDs on ASUS router models I have.

    I am trying to understand vlans

    PfSense is open source firewall; you can buy either a Netgear appliance which will cost you more, or buy something like Protectli I am not sure if the pro version of the 11000 is a VLAN-aware router.

    VLAN with L2 switches and Asus Aimesh

    Hello all, I am planning to create VLANs on my PfSense appliance, however there are couple of issues I want to overcome. From what I understand I will need layer 2 switches which are VLAN aware to accomplish what I am trying to do. The added complexity is that I want one VLAN to be broadcast on...

    Can I do VLAN? Pfsense and Asus AP

    Merlin is already there, which scripts are we talking about? Here is my setup: Pfsense appliance ---> Asus ROG GTX-11000 in AP mode ---> Asus AX86U & AX68U as remote nodes.

    FIOS connection keeps failing

    It worked briefly and then the internet jammed up. I had to do the same FIOS app routine to get the net working again. I made sure, because the LAN was working fine: I could access both the asus and pfsense portals.

    Can I do VLAN? Pfsense and Asus AP

    Hello all, I have recently setup a pfsense appliance and put my Asus Router in a AP mode with AI mesh enabled with two remote nodes. Is there a way I can implement VLANs to segregate devices on different AImesh nodes. Thanks in advance.

    FIOS connection keeps failing

    Update: I have placed a pfsense appliance between the ONT and the router (which is now an AP) and after the initial setup. The internet still jammed up, and I had to use the FIOS app to refresh the ONT. I am going to give some additional time for this setup to work and see how it goes. This is...

    Harden Asus GT-AX11000 on Merlin

    Fair comment, so what steps you suggest then. Should I pair down all these excessive add-ons and do what exactly? And yes IPv6 is enabled.
