Hi, in the last two weeks, I scanned this forum to find an answer, but now I can't fit all pieces together. Thus, I'd like to ask whether it is possible to achieve the following setup. If so, could someone be so kind to point me in the right direction?
I've got three RT-AC68U (stock firmware) serving as Access Points in an AiMesh. All three routers are connected via LAN to a manageable Netgear switch (GS108Ev3), which is hooked up to another router (AVM Fritz!Box), which manages the DSL internet connection. This setup works well.
Now, I would like to provide a guest wifi, too (devices in the guest network should be able to access the internet only). The Fritz!Box provides a guest network via Wifi and also via a dedicated LAN port. I thought I could have my RT-AC68Us provide a 2.4 and a 5.0 GHz guest wifi, which is connected to the dedicated guest LAN port of the Fritz!Box via VLAN. However, I'm unsure about whether this can be done with the hardware in the first place, as I read various posts about the RT-AC68U not capable of handling "the right type of" VLAN. Moreover, I'm confused about which tools to use (e.g., robocfg, brctl, ip, nvram) and "how to get started."
Can this be done? If so, which posts/threads would be most relevant for me?
Thank you very much.
