Hello, in our hotel we have  6 x  TL-SG1024DE, the ISP router sends to 1 switch and this sends to the other 3 switches, our hotel consists of 25 rooms x 2 ethernet sockets per room total 50, plus 6 EAP access points to covers the hotel wifi.

 

I was thinking of purchasing a core switch to control the dhcp and to send to all switches and access points. Is this a good idea? What do you suggest models please.

 

Nick

If your ISP router supports multi-nets, then you can choose a managed switch with DHCP server function, the models in the following table are for reference only:

Hi  @Hank21 

 

I dont think it does support multi-nets, i can see it lets you create vlans , in general it's a crapy ISP router VOIP ISDN and has ISDN BRI port for my telephone box or else i have no telephone LOL,

 

The other option is if i buy ISDN VOIP VDSL+  router which i am also thinking, after doing some search i dont think tplink has right?
