    Vlan Switch Advice

    Which of the tp-link would you suggest that has a manage GUI interface ? I think at this point I need to get me a okay router since the one i have is out now. Need something that has a GUI interface, and easy to create vlans to separate my private traffic and my lab traffic.

    Vlan Switch Advice

    I think i'm going to try out the D-Link 5-Port EasySmart Gigabit Ethernet Switch (DGS-1100-05) and see how that goes. I may need help configuring the vlans. it sounds simple but I know it's not. All i want is to keep my private network and lab network separated from each other. I don't need any...

    Vlan Switch Advice

    Thank you both for the advice. All i want is to secure my private traffic from my lab traffic. Same goes with the media traffic. I know that with my SRW2008P i was able to do that by assign certain ports with vlans. Some people say that vlans are hard to configure so if I do buy the...

    Help GS108Tv2 Vlan Setup

    Thank you for the info. I double checked my router from my ISP and it does not support vlan at all. I guess I just need to figure out how to really set this up. I know for a fact this is slowing me down on my studies i need to be doing. Keeping my lab secure from other device on the network.

    Help GS108Tv2 Vlan Setup

    Ya that's the issue i had. I really couldn't find a good tutorial to follow. I needed the router to segment each vlan to it's own ip range. That way I could setup the vlans correct by port number. I return the switch/router back. I'm still looking around to find a good one that will work for me.

    Help GS108Tv2 Vlan Setup

    I might of found what i was looking for. The LGS308P is from support almost the same switch i have. I could assign vlan to a certain port on the switch, and segment it with different ip address. I'm going to purchase that one and try it. If that doesn't really work I will have to figure...

    Help with VLan

    Thank you both for helping me out and explaining this to me. I notice @coxhaus you mean that I need other switch/router, and setup DHCP for the vlans to talk to each other.

    Help GS108Tv2 Vlan Setup

    Well thank you for trying to explain to me how to set this up, I will try tonight when I get home. it's just so confusing . I had a linksys switch and that was way easier to configure because you assign the ports to the vlan. Much easier to figure out and configure. Are there better switches...

    Vlan Switch Advice

    Thank you for the advice. I looked at the Zyxel one but man those are expensive to get on my budget. I'm pushing more toward the http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003KP8VSK/?tag=snbforums-20 netgear one. Look at the features it had, plus you're right 8 port just in case... I'm might order this one...
