Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.2 Build 20251030 Rel.16640

Hello, 

I have a fairly basic setup with

-- Gateway ER605 v1.0 connected to internet

--  Wireless access point  EAP660 HD(US) v1.0 for wireless access 

-- I use Software based omada controlled to administer the network

-- As of now I have no managed layer 2 or layer 3 omada switch in my network, I do have a off the shelf unmanaged  desktop switch 

 

I have very simple VLAN setup with 3 separate VLAN(s) assigned to separate SSID 

Bhokaal-Guest

Interface

192.168.100.1 / 24

100

 

Bhokaal-Iot

Interface

192.168.10.1 / 24

--

10

 

Bhokaal-VLAN(Default)

Interface

192.168.0.1 / 24

1

 

 

The wireless access point was directly connected to one of the LAN port of the gateway & devices connecting to separate SSID would automatically get assigned to  different VLANs as 3 different SSID each for 1 VLAN. All the wired lan devices are getting assigned to default VLAN ID: 1

 

I want to move one of the wired client end devices to VLAN ID: 10 (Bhokaal-Iot), but unable to do so.

I have tried

-- DHCP reservation with the client's MAC  => which has no effect the client keeps getting a VLAN ID(default): 1  IP 

-- I have also tried to set that port on the gateways to the VLAN ID:10 (Bhokaal-Iot) from the device configuration menu  => The client doesn't get a valid ip and doesn't come on the network.

 

Is this possible with my setup ?

If no,  if add a simple managed layer 2 switch like ES205G, can I make it work ? or will it need more pieces ?
 

Please help

 

Thanks

  @bhokaal We can't guarantee that the unmanaged desktop switch will pass the VLAN tag downward; in fact in some cases it strips the tag entirely. That being said, you should be able to set a port on the gateway to the VLAN tag you want, and devices connected to it should get an IP in the range as long as you've set your DHCP up properly.
