Hello fellows,
I installed OpenWRT on this router, in order to use it as Multi SSID access point, where each SSID is tied to its own VLAN.
I created the first SSID on the 2.4 GHz radio, bridged it eth1.3 interface (WAN port, VLAN3), and it worked fine.
I then created the second SSID on the 5 GHz radio, bridged it to the eth1.4 interface (WAN port, VLAN4) and it also worked fine.
So I created two more SSIDs, both on the 2.4 GHz radio in addition to the first SSID, and bridged them to eth1.5 and eth1.6. To my surprise this is not working, clients connecting to these SSIDs do not see their respective upstream DHCP servers.
Here is my configuration:
SSID1, 2.4GHz, WiFi1 bridged to eth1.3
SSID2, 5GHz, WiFi2 bridged to eth1.4
SSID3, 2.4GHz, WiFi3 bridged to eth1.5
SSID4, 2.4GHz, WiFi4 bridged to eth1.6
The VLANs 3, 4, 5, and 6 are connected with the single cable to the WAN port of the TL-WDR3500. Corresponding upstream DHCP servers are configured identically, except each of the VLANS is in its own subnet.
Only SSD1 and SSID2 work, the SSID3 and SSID4 do not. Is only a single VLAN per wireless radio supported?
Thinking that I need to turn on VLANs somewhere else, I went to the switch settings, and in addition to the untagged VLAN, added VLANs 3, 4, 5, and 6 to the CPU port. I left LAN 1 through LAN 4 port settings unchanged (untagged). As soon as I saved the settings I locked myself out. Now I can no longer connect to the router on the wired LAN ports.
Thank you!
