[UHF]

Hi,

i'm a little bit lost how I could achieve the following.

I have several SSIDs for 2.4 and 5GHz. All of them with a different subnet. Now I want to have one of the LAN Ports in the same subnet.

I've tried several things. E.g Build new bridge, but nothing worked. Also doing SNAT and DNAT did not work very well.

Any ideas how I could easily implement that?

regards,

UHF

If you want to assign one (or more) of the LAN ports to the same subnet as one of your APs/VAPs, then you need to create a new VLAN (e.g., vlan3), move the port(s) to the new VLAN from the existing default VLAN (usually vlan1), then assign both the AP/VAP and new VLAN to a new bridge (e.g., br1). Now you reference the new bridge for the purpose of creating a DHCP server, creating firewall rules, etc., rather than its individual components (i.e., the AP/VAP and/or VLAN assigned to the bridge).

All that said, VLANs are hardware dependent, and require you address their proper configuration using the appropriate forum for your specific router's chipset (Atheros, Broadcom, etc.). And there's no guarantee that VLANs will work w/ dd-wrt in every instance. It varies from router to router. And may require making changes using the CLI rather than the VLANs section of the GUI.

Hi.

Thanks for the super fast answer. I tried it already, but I cannot connect to the wifi. Tried it also without WPA2 encryption, but it seems the DHCP did not work.

What I've done

1. assign Port4 to vlan 4
2. change VAP xyz to bridged mode
3. create br1 and assign ip subnet
4. assign vlan 4 and VAP xyz to br1
5. add DHCP for br1

Result is I cannot connect. Even the WPA2 pass is accepted it seems, usually I expect to see something like "get ip addr" on my mobile, but it just won't let me in.

Do you have a recommendation for a good router which can do this? Actually I am running a Broadcom model (TP-Link Archer C9 v1)

This general forum is indeed not the recommended forum to post these question e.g. see the Second Announcement in that forum : STOP!-READ FIRST: This area is NOT for router help! READ!

No problem as I will transfer this thread for you

We can only give optimal assistance if you do not only tells us the router model but also the build number you are using.

See the forum guidelines with helpful pointers about how to research your router, where and what firmware to download, where and how to post and many other helpful tips:

N.B this router should be able to do this if you are using the right build and the right setup (basically as @eibgrad posted)
