Isolating main network.
Isolating main network.
Hi,
I'm trying to give guests in 4 separate lodges access to the internet via starlink which is on my house, so make sure they don't have access to main network. See below for an of current setup.
I guess I'm going to have to put Starlink router into bypass mode and get a new router and switches. Could someone advise what router and switches would be required. Thanks.
The starlink router is wired into 8 port switch and then also plugged into that switch is one of the cpe210 that is configured as ap and then it connects via ptp to client CPE from that a cable is wired to another 8 port switch, a WR841N which is on the lodge is then connected via ethernet cable from that switch.

You could put an omada gateway in the place of the switch downstream of the starlink (top, middle in the diagram), put the starlink in bridge mode and have the omada gateway manage all vlans and IP assignments from that point down
In future, it might be worthwhile replacing the PtP link with an actual cable for better throughput and reliability
In terms of EAPs, one per lodge or a couple high power outdoor ones might cover all the dwellings

Ok cheers, will give it a go. The garage is about 40m from the house and not an easy cable route to get to it.
Would the WR84N1 set in AP mode not work instead of replacing it with EAP for now.

That particular "acess point" isnt vlan aware so you only get one vlan out of it and no central control.
There are some inexpensive EAP models that will fully work with Omada
