Adding WAN Port to Switch (use as a normal LAN port)
When the WRT is used as an Access Point (AP) or repeater (WDS), the WAN port can easily be configured as a normal LAN port.
Use the following steps:
1.)
Under "Setup" -> "Basic Setup"
Set "Internet Setup" to "Disabled"
2.)
Under "Setup" -> "VLANs"
- Select "LAN" under "Assigned to bridge" for VLAN 1 * This will set the WAN port (vlan1) is part of the LAN bridge (br0).
3.)
The VLAN setting should show something like:
| Port | Assigned VLAN |-------------------| to bridge | W | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | -------------------------------------------- 0 | | x | x | x | x | LAN -------------------------------------------- 1 | x | | | | | LAN -------------------------------------------- 2 | | | | | | None -------------------------------------------- ... -------------------------------------------- Tagged | | | | | | ------------------------------
4.)
Save Settings
5.)
Reset the Router (See Note)
Note: Rebooting the router (Step 5) is not required if you issue the following command at a terminal (SSH,Telnet). However, ONLY issuing the command WITHOUT the steps (1-4) above will ONLY last until the next reboot). Command: 'brctrl addif br0 vlan1'
It would be nice to be able to assign different networks to each of the ports.. Is there any work done in this direction?
