Netgear r8000 pre-purchase questions

[ugo1]

Hi,

I have some questions about the Netgear r8000 and stock firmware

my actual schema is: modem / router (usr robotics 9108) --> layer 2 switch --> internal lan

1- is possibile to set vlan so I can share the Ethernet printer and internet with the layer 2 switch?

2- if I assign to the 2,4 Ghz band the guest access I can still use it for private (not guest / normal) wi-fi access?

Regards

Ugo

Hi...

1. The VLAN/Bridge feature is designed to utilise a tagged VLAN packet from the WAN port and route to a specific LAN port, ie., for ISP specific Internet/IPTV/Phone
The router switch is unmanaged, so the functionality is not for traditional port based VLAN traffic.

2. Yes it's possible to run 2.4 GHz in guest and normal modes.
