Same VLAN ID for multiple WANs?
Hi there,
I'm trying to setup my ER605 (controlled by OC200) to use 2 WAN interfaces with same VLAN ID (needed by my ISPs) . I can configure first one without any problem but second WAN gives me an error - VLAN ID is already used on site. Is there any way how to get it done?

What are the configs? It would be helpful to see some pictures of your WAN VLAN and LAN VLAN config.
From my past experience, it is not recommended to set up your WAN and LAN with the dup numbers(like IP, VLAN ID and etc.).

I just have default LAN, so only VLAN ID 1 is used in LAN. I need to set up WAN and WAN/LAN1 ports to us PPPoE connection with VLAN set on both ports to 848. If I set WAN to VLAN 848 and WAN/LAN1 to VLAN 849 it works, but I need both to use VLAN 848. Error message is "This VLAN already exists in one site."

OK, I see. Do you mean that both your WAN and WAN/LAN1 connection requires the VLAN and they have the same VLAN ID 848? Same ISP?

Yes, that's right, both WANs need same VLAN ID. ISP is the same but bonding is not possible from his side, so I need 2 separate connections.

Not sure about this. Is there any other router that supports dual wan with the same VLAN ID? From what you described, it seems ER605 does not support such a connection. So, at this time, I could only think you put up a router for WAN/LAN1. Should be ISP---Router PPPoE with VLAN ID----ER605(WAN/LAN1).

Actually I have found one from DrayTek Vigor2960. But I would like to simplify my setup, not to add another device. I know I can use other router and put it between IPS and ER605, I just have hoped there is a way to do this only with ER605.

Thanks for workaround but still, direct support would be better. Is there any way how to officially make feature request?
