asus merlin: isolate xbox on wired lan?

[JaysonSun]

Hi

have an asus rt-ac86u running latest merlin + xbox.

Xbox connects to a wireless guest account on the router, with the purpose to isolate the xbox from other stuff on my local network.

Now, I want to connect the xbox with an ethernet cable instead, that is to replace the wireless connection with a cable but still keeping the xbox isolated from the stuff on the local network.

Can this be done? How?

All suggestions appreciated, many thanks in advance.

Why do you want to isolate the Xbox?

 

[JaysonSun]

privacy concerns (please respect my reasons to be a different topic).

For a console.. OK.....??

That won't stop you getting DDOS'd etc.

 

[JaysonSun]

sure, so back to the topic: can this be done and if so - how?

OP said AC86u

Thanks, I missed that.

In which case he'd have to do something like this: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/a...-by-u128393-i-found-on-a-chinese-forum.63113/

@ColinTaylor: Much appreciated - so it appears to be doable yet somewhat more complicated than expected.
Thanks for the tip, will take a closer look at those scripts.
