Is it possible to force Freewrt to tag all packages one receives
via WLAN with a specific VLAN-ID (say VLAN7) and prohibit any
possibility to "fake" a different VLAN-ID via WLAN (this means
to force substitution of any already included VLAN-ID into the
specific one (VLAN7) or alternatively to drop packages already
tagged on reception)?
The background to this question is, that I want to allow my
neighbour to use my WLAN for reaching the internet. As a matter
of course I want to protect my internal net not only against
my neighbour but also to all others trying to intrude via WLAN.
Especially against hackers who try to send already tagged
packages to circumvent the firewall. My internal net is already
separated by VLANs (via a VLAN capable switch).

Unfortunately I also want to be able to connect with my laptop
via WLAN and reach some machines on the internal net. Therefore
it is not an option to block all traffic from WLAN to the internal
switch ports.
Who said it would be an easy problem? ;-)

Is there a solution which will secure the WLAN side but enables
my laptop to reach machines on the internal net? Maybe the VLAN
idea is completely wrong for the WLAN side?

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Regards
Karsten
