@egc. That's an interesting approach that guy used. But I needed all 4 ports on my R7000 as local ports assigned to VLAN1 so I can't try this method.
I'm happy that I now have it working using the script I posted yesterday. So I now have 3 WAPs running DD-WRT each supporting 3 VLANs and 3 VAPs all bridged correctly.
Now on to my next project. Thanks for all your help.

I was just surprised that the GUI Switch Configuration doesn't reflect the changes made to the configuration in a startup script. The information on the Network Tab does reflect script changes.
I got the reset switch info from the Ralink SOC forum. Are you saying it is redundant for Broadcom? Can I replace :
swconfig dev switch0 set reset 1
swconfig dev switch0 set enable_vlan 1
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 1 set ports "0 1 2 3 4 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 3 set ports "0t 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 5 set ports "0t 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 100 set ports "0t 5t"
vconfig set_name_type VLAN_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD
swconfig dev switch0 set apply
with
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 1 set ports "0 1 2 3 4 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 3 set ports "0t 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 5 set ports "0t 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 vlan 100 set ports "0t 5t"
swconfig dev switch0 set apply

Flashed this briefly to test functionality on RT-AC3100. Everything appeared okay. Waiting on additional test router to flash permanently to test and run. _________________ ASUS RT-AC3100 AP Merlin 386.12_4

This is the first time I am using DD-WRT on a new powerful router (RT-AC68U).
I was running Asuswrt-Merlin for years and had no problems. I then had to use it as a repeater and found that it was limited in the settings. This totally solved that problem and I am getting the best performance ever.
Thank you developers!

Shortcut Forwarding Engine: SFE
Flow Acceleration: CTF
Issues:
1. The install issue above.
2. DDNS client to NO-IP.com, status is always connecting to server, can this work in the RB mode?
The only two things I would like to see so far
1. How to get a list of all my connected clients and their hostnames and IPs.
2. How to turn on/off the router light (the switch doesn't work anymore, just remains on) and/or front blue LEDs or maybe a schedule based on sunrise/sunset.
