    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    Just to add, I've never used CLI before except the old school DOS which I hardly remember to use. That was a whole new world to get into, quite addicting :rolleyes:

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    L&LD, ColinTaylor I appreciate the suggestions and concerns regarding our home network. It's been a week since I last posted and that week was spent researching and making sure that the network was properly setup "to my knowledge". 1. I kept the Asus Router, I purchased it for $150 at Best Buy...

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    Initially that was my first thought however, Comcast doesn’t allow 2 modems in residential according to their sales rep. Unless I have a business listed in a residential home then I could have residential and business accounts. Or two electrical meters signifying two separate addresses in the...

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    I had a Q&A with the IT department for better clarification. I'll keep it as informed as possibility because I don't understand half the lingo they were saying.

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    No I didn't buy it. They brought it with them. Life is definitely easier going to work in an office lol! Your solution is a lot cheaper than what they've been suggesting.

However, the router doesn't "natively" support vlans and it doesn't connect to the internet. I'm lost on...

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    Colin, you're right I'll get some details tomorrow and will post asap. 58chev, I'll take a look at your suggestion. Like I said, I haven't really tinkered around with scripts but I'm willing to give it a shot. My purpose is also to learn and educate myself with networking, it couldn't hurt to...

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    I'm not sure how they would connect to company and home. The proposed solution is a "smart switch" and something else. Additional cost was $450. Even if I purchase the equipment, I would still need to the initial setup as they would only begin their part of the work when connections are...

    Simple VLAN setup - help please

    Hi all, My first post here but I have been lurking around to gain knowledge of networking. My current setup is a very simple home networking solution: Xfinity 1g speed, Arris SB8200, Asus RT-AC3100 with Merlin FW. My issue is setting up a VLAN using my current setup. I'm currently working at...
