The VLAN info will only be on the outside connection, otherwise nothing in your house would be able to talk to each other. You can simply create new VLANs and you could even re-use VLAN IDs from the main router as long as you make sure that no tagged data is sent on your outside line. If your SBs are all wired you could set this up with your current hardware (don't know what you run LMS on?)
Not exactly an expert on openwrt, but from what I've seen it is basically Linux and it does offer guest wifi so probably all that you require for segmenting your network is already inside those boxes. Somebody may in fact have already done something similar and posted it on their 'user forum' (https://forum.openwrt.org/) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gordonb3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115017 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
