I have been using DD-WRT for more than 10 years and have been fiddling with it successfully with our cable connection.

Now that I have fibre internet, protocol changed to PPoE and need to set internet access with a VLAN for basic connection. Read all I could read on forums and still was not able to make it work. I reverted to Linksys firmware for internet access in the meantime and would like to have a bulletproof step-by-step guide for this simple task (see picture).

Thanks!

Linksys wrt1900ac v1
Built: 41874 or newer (tell me which one I should use)

Downloaded latest firmware, entered PPoE credentials. Then what?

What information needs to be added or modified?

I did not change anything under switch config and added Vlan tagging. What do I have to do?

Sorry! I know it is basic, but I simply don't get it!

In your case, change it to 40:

Simple VLAN 7 tagging on the WAN port.
No other settings are necessary.

(change the 7 to the desired VLAN ID)

Feel even more puzzled. Here is config I entered.

There must be something else I am not doing properly.

No, there is no VLAN40.
The WAN interface is eth0 (default setting)

@Charleswrt1900AC

Do not configure garbage.
Read the thread, all the necessary settings are shown there.

If this is too difficult then dd-wrt is not suitable for you.

again:

There are two options listed in the thread.
You can use one or the other option, but not both together

1. https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=334342&start=1

2. https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=334342&start=5

There is no further help from me, as all you have to do is rename VLAN2 to the desired VLAN and tag the port.

That is 3 clicks that are required
