Will the RBR20 / RBS20 pass through vlan tagging via wired backhaul path in AP mode?
So I have a wired router with vlans set up which connects to a managed switch. Into the managed switch I have my Orbi RBR20 connected in AP mode and then backhaul ethernet connected to the other side...
Yes, in theory, adding a simple 5-port managed switch to the second Ethernet port of the RBS20 should allow VLAN tagging to work smoothly, enabling you to segregate the smart TV onto a separate VLAN. However, it's essential to ensure that the managed switch supports VLAN tagging and can properly interpret the VLAN tags passed from the Orbi system. Additionally, you'll need to configure the managed switch to recognize and handle the VLAN tags accordingly. As long as these conditions are met, you should be able to achieve the desired network segmentation for your smart TV.
