    Simplest way to set up VLANs?

    Hi, I'm trying to work out the best way to separate a home and B&B with VLANs so that they are not a threat to each other but can both access the (PPPoE or IPoE) broadband connection. Currently there is a standard home wireless router. The home uses wireless and ethernet, and the B&B is...

    Using VLAN vs. Guest Network on RT-AC66U?

    I’m using the latest ASUS firmware for the AC-66U (3.0.0.4.380.8228), which I don’t believe has VLAN capability. I would like to segment my IoT devices off from the main network for security since these devices usually are weak on security. What would be the downside of using a guest network...

    Accessing multiple VLANS through a router

    Hi all, fairly new to networking, at least at the routing level. My network is actually in a theater, but still pretty small: three switches, two at FOH and one in the orchestra pit. There are two VLANs that I currently need frequent access to, VLANs 20 and 30, and I thought if I trunked those...

    IPTV VLAN Config

    Hello, long time lurker here, finally decided to register on this amazing forum. I get a 100/20 fiber connection and IPTV from my ISP. IPTV uses VLAN 3999, while Internet is untagged. TV Box uses both VLANs. Internet for channel logos and EPG, VLAN 3999 for multicast. The options in the...

    AC68U guest network vlan

    Hi, I just flashed my AC68U with asusmerlin. And the device is connected to ISP router via WAN port. And I have Windows AD to handle DNS and DHCP, thus I'm setup AC68U in AP mode. I don't use the LAN port on the device because I only use wireless feature as wired clients handled with switches...

    WAN port in AP mode

    Hello, I would like to use WAN port on a par with other 4 LAN ports in access point (AP) mode on my RT-AC87U with 380.68_4 Merlin firmware. Do I need to move WAN port (port 0 on BCM5301x switch) from vlan2 to vlan1 manually by robocfg utility in AP mode? Thank you.

    VLAN tagging using MI424WR Rev I MoCA bridges?

    Is it possible to pass VLAN tags using two MI424WR Rev I MoCA bridges? Is there some setting I'm missing? I even tried putting the upstream and downstream MoCA bridges on a VLAN port on a switch using a PVID and VID tag. That also didn't work, but it might be because the bridges were still...

    Getting vlans to work on an RT-AC88U

    Hardware: RT-AC88U Firmware: 382.1_beta3 After expending a whole lot of effort, I thought I might be able to block wired IoT smart devices at the port level from being able to access the local network. After reading 24 threads on this website, I cobbled together a script that was similar to...

    Your recommendations on my Home network architecture

    Hello SNB friends, I have been reading a lot around but most of the time, I don't find a similar network to get the best ideas on how to setup my home network. Usually companies will have a network architect and security guru that would be able to help :) Here is what I had in mind: The...

    Question about ASUS Merlin Media Bridge

    Hello all, Please forgive the question if it's been answered elsewhere. Copious searching has not yielded an answer yet. I've got 2 RT-AC3200 routers, both running 380.62_2. One is in "Wireless Router" mode and hooked up to one part of the network. The other is in "Media Bridge" mode and...

    Best option for CenturyLink Gigabit fiber

    So, I have been trying for the last couple of months to come up with an optimal solution for improving my CenturyLink Gigabit fiber. I have the CL ZyXel C1100Z. Terribly slow interface, but accelerates PPPoE well and if all I was doing was browsing the web, this might be good along with a...

    Secondary WIFI Networks: VLANS or SSID, or Both?

    There's a lot of information aimed at different levels so I'm confused how to achieve what I want. I have an Asus Rt-AC3100 and I want to set up multiple, isolated networks that connect to the internet. The primary network would be accessible through wifi/ports but all other networks would...

    Router Used as Smart (managed) Switch

    Hello, I'd like to implement some vlans in my home network to isolate a few IoT type devices from the rest of the network. Sticking with the asusmerlin firmware should yield the best wifi experience because of the native drivers. One key difference from most of the posts I've read on the...

    IoT - how to wall off devices while keeping them usable

    Quick background - not a newb but definitely no packet networking pro. I have advanced knowledge in TDM circuit switching which is dying a quick death and I adapt quickly to new tech when I'm thrown in the fire so to speak. I've been teaching myself packet switching/routing as I can, and have a...

    VLANs, DHCP, pfSense - Clients cannot get internet access

    Hi, I've been fighting with this for a couple of days. I have a pfSense router with a VLAN4 defined on the LAN interface tagged with id "4". That port is connected to port 1 on the router. My goal is to have a wlan on vlan4. This is how I have configured it: robocfg vlan 4 ports "1t 8t"...

    How to setup an isolated VLAN on Merlin?

    Hi All, I tried to read a few instructions but am unable to produce expected results. What I have is an ASUS RT-AC68U running merlin firmware with one AP connected. I can create an isolated SSID (one that cannot access Intranet) on ASUS without problem, but I cannot "extend" it to my AP. The...

    VLAN usage question

    (NOTE: I have read the SNB article, "VLAN How To: Segmenting a small LAN", which introduced me to the fundamentals of using the VLAN feature of a managed switch.) Let's assume I have a router and a low-end, web-managed switch that both offer VLAN capabilities. On the switch I have some ports...
