Hi
First post, so new to the forum.

I was intending to utilise the LAN1 connection on each of the CPE510 units I have for a separate LAN (i.e. a different subnet).

I seem to be having problems as soon as I connect the LAN1 port.

I think the CPE510 may not be able to achieve what I am trying to do, as there is only one IP address structure available at setup, however I will ask anyway as I cannot seem to resolve it by testing.

I want to put my 192.168.23.xx structure through LAN0, and have got everything working well with this.

I then want to run another LAN such as 192.168.1.xx via LAN1 on each end and have them linked.

I am thinking now that the LAN1 is merely another connection of the main subnet, rather than a separate 'pipe' to cross the gap.

Perhaps I need a solution similar to Draytek's LANA and LANB on some of their APs.

If anyone can clarify how LAN1 can be utilised, that would be appreciated.

THanks

Matt

If you want to separate LAN0 and LAN1 to two totally different subnet, I guess there is no way...

In AP/client/bridge/repeater mode, LAN0, LAN1 and WLAN are in a same subnet;
In AP client router mode,WLAN is WAN port while LAN0 and LAN1 are LAN port;
In AP Router mode, LAN0 is WAN port while LAN1 and WLAN are LAN port, while I don't think this is what you want if I have caught your point...

I guess what you mean is the below scenario, is it right?



If I get the right meaning, you can add a VLAN switch like this:



And apply management VLAN function to achieve your goal.
But before that, you have to upgrade to the beta firmware:

Thanks. I thought as much. I need AP/Client mode, so really LAN1 is just another connection to the same network.
Appreciate the reply.

I had not thought of VLAN and not sure if I have the appropriate hardware. I will investigate. Thanks for the reply and suggestion of an alternative.
