IP address/groups (ranges) assigned to router ports

Tags: #WAN Setup

Model: ER605 (TL-R605)

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 2.1.2 Build 20230210 Rel.62992

I'm using the router in a standalone configuration. what i want to do is assign IP Range1 (192.168.1.2-20) to port5, Range2 (192.168.1.21-40) to port4, Range3 (192.168.1.41-200) to port3. i have found where i can create VLAN and assign that VLAN to a spicific port, but i cannot seem to create multiple VLANs within the same /24 range. i've also found IP Groups/Addresses under preferecnce, but i cannot find how to bind these addresses/groups to the ports, or even a VLAN, or vice-verse. is this functionality not possible, am i missing some piece of knowledge on networking/configuration, or is some other piece of hardware needed?

I realized i was being foolish and needed to change the subnet to /26 instead of the normal /24. the issue now is that the router is not allowing me to add my second, third, or fourth network ranges.

my first network has the following:

IP Address : 192.168.10.1

Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.192

Vlan : 1921

Starting IP Address : 192.168.10.11

Ending IP Address : 192.168.10.60

for the second network, i had to skip 64 and go with 65:

IP Address : 192.168.10.65

Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.192

Vlan : 1922

Starting IP Address : 192.168.10.66

Ending IP Address : 192.168.10.126

I hope this helps someone.
