Hi all,

 

first, I want to say thank you for taking the time and consider helping here.

 

Some details upfront to capture the situation of what I am trying to achieve with my ER706W router. I have already read and spent quite some time with the manual, but it is very much not helpful to generate the outcome I want. I would like to know what I would have to configure for this, in my opinion, very simple and straightforward setup.

 

Configuration in Standalone Mode - getting internet through ISP via PPPoE WAN - no other devices apart from this ER706W router since it has wireless functionality integrated.

 

I want to have 3 different networks (one for private devices, one for IoT isolated devices, one for guests) translating to 3 different SSIDs / LANs / VLANs with dedicated IP ranges. Devices mostly connected through the SSIDs. For the sake of simplicity, all clients in the SSIDs / LANs should get internet, but clients in each of the separate SSIDs/LANs should not be able to find other clients in other SSIDs/LANs.

 

My configuration simplified:

 

LAN config:

LAN10 with IP range 10.0.1.10 - 10.0.1.20 (VLAN 10)

LAN30 with IP range 10.0.1.30 - 10.0.1.40 (VLAN 30)

LAN50 with IP range 10.0.1.50 - 10.0.1.60 (VLAN 50)

 

WIRELESS config:

SSID10 (VLAN ID 10) - IP range 10.0.1.10 - 10.0.1.20

SSID30 (VLAN ID 30) - IP range 10.0.1.30 - 10.0.1.40

SSID50 (VLAN ID 50) - IP range 10.0.1.50 - 10.0.1.60 (as Guest Network enabled)

 

Group IP and IP Address config:

"GROUP ID 10" with "IP address 10" with 10.0.1.10 - 10.0.1.20

"GROUP ID 30" with "IP address 30" with 10.0.1.30 - 10.0.1.40

"GROUP ID 50" with "IP address 50" with 10.0.1.50 - 10.0.1.60

 

My issues are:

-) When connecting a mobile device (mobile phone or pad) via SSID - the assigned IP in the Wireless section is a random IP and has nothing to do with the ranges I set above. How is this possible? A glitch? When I look at the client list in the LAN section, the IP matches the respective IP range for that LAN.

-) How would I have to configure the wireless settings or LAN settings or ACLs or anything else to block clients from one SSID/LAN finding clients in the other two SSIDs / LANs?

 

Would very much appreciate your help on those issues, as I cannot seem to find a solution for this with the manual and reading through the community so far.

 

Thank you very much,
