ORBI RBK23 VLAN tagging / setup for both internet and iptv - Bell Fibe
Hello - I am considering replacement of the TP-Link Deco X20 device with the Netgear RBK23 Tri-band mesh wifi. We are on Bell Fibe IPTV & internet services in Ontario, Canada. What I would like to do is to the following:
- Remove home hub 3000
- Connected a media converter with SFP slot to the fiber line (e.g. 10GTek Media Converter )
- Connect ethernet from media converter to Netgear Orbi RBK23
- Setup wireless VLAN tagging for VLAN 36 (IPTV) & VLAN 35 (internet)
Is this possible with the current Orbi RBK23 network options accessable from the web interface or app? Any other considerations? If Orbi RBK23 is not the right device, then what is for a 3000 sq foot home (approx 1000 per floor) to ensure no deadzones and minimize # of devices?
Thank you for your help!

Any VLAN tagging would be done from the RBRs web page.
Review the user manual for setup information.
Do a search here in the foruns for VLAN posts.

What is not clear to me is whether VLAN tagging is for a specific LAN port on the Orbi device or a specific SSID or broadly for wireless connections? Any additional information on this point?
I believe the VLAN tagging is for only WAN side configurations.
