Hello,
I have ASUS RT-N66U with 3.0.0.4.374.32 Merlin firmware. Now I sharing my internet connection to my neighbourhood via LAN connection. I want that he will not be able to see my network (LAN, WiFi) devices.
How can I do this with Merlin?
Is it possible to create VLANs or maybe I can do this with some other settings?

Thanks
 
I'm curious about how to go about setting up a Vlan as well to separate my bandwidth allocation of ethernet and wireless.
 
vlans are easy to set up

here's an example using port 3

Code:
#sepate port 3 from other ports
robocfg vlan 3 ports "3 8t"
#create vlan3
vconfig add eth0 3
#we'll use a bridge to get internet access
brctl addif br0 vlan3
#bring up vlan3
ifconfig vlan3 up
#add rule for vlan3
iptables -I INPUT 1 -i vlan3 -j ACCEPT

although just a note, the above, would essentially function the same as the default configuration
 
not sure how to do that

and as already mentioned
above would essentially function as normal
so you'll have to research for specific settings

but I think vlan would be the say to go
after all that is the purpose of vlans
to separate a link from the rest of the network
