    Splitting smart home devices in separate network

    Ah now I understand what agilani meant, thanks for clarifying Colin. I will try with the VLAN tagging approach first, as this uses only 1 router. This will be my new fallback plan now though, let's me keep my "good" wifi with the AC66U and still get what I want. Thanks agilani aswell

    Splitting smart home devices in separate network

    That doesn't accomplish connecting the guest network to my switch ports or my router ports at all. The main router has enough wifi range to cover all the devices.

    Splitting smart home devices in separate network

    I know how to do this if I use both wifi routers. But as I said the wifi strength of the N56 is not that good on the edges of my house. If I only use the AC66U I can configure 2 VLANs on the Switch, but then I don't have a connection from the guest wifi from the AC66U and the other VLAN on the...

    Splitting smart home devices in separate network

    Hello, last week I bought a new wifi router, the Asus RT-AC66U (using Asuswrt Merlin). Now I want to split my home network, one network for my PC, Laptops etc. and one for all the smart home devices. That worked good with a guest network for the smart devices, but now I installed Home Assistant...
