Subject: [gentoo-user] [OT - More Router Advice] Cheap Router with decent/reliable VLAN support
Date: Sat, 28 May 2011 13:10:09 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DE12C71.3020706@libertytrek.org> (raw)

After seeing an older thread asking about a router, I figured I'd ask my
own question...

I'm looking for a cheap but reliable router that has decent and SIMPLE
way to add VLANs (I'm not a CISCO guy and don't want to have to become
one)...

Specifically, I want to have one VLAN that my wireless access points are
plugged into, to provide ONLY internet access, and then a separate VLAN
for my internal network...

This is to protect my internal net from any potentially infected
machines that are on the wireless access points (I routinely work on
infected computers for friends/family, so, I need internet access, but
want them isolated from my internal network).

Anyone? Will one of the FLOSS builds for the cheap Cable/DSL routers
support VLANs on the different built-in router ports (ie, Tomato, DD-WRT
or OpenWRT)?

Looking forward to any suggestions/ideas...
