Gs308e

I have the Nighthawk MR60 and a GS308E managed switch.  I have very little knowledge as far as network set up, specifically I need to set up a separate VLAN for a VoLP phone.  The phone has not been working properly and the provider is just now telling me, (8 months later) certain ports are closed that need to be opened.  I have computers on the same network.  I have been trying to research and understand the process for a few weeks now and my head is spinning.  I don't know the correct settings for this process.

    Don't think this is required - unless you have a larger, more complex network environment.

    Most phones handle this automatically using UPnP PMP, and other sophisticated mechanisms.

    Don't want to destroy your idea - however most consumer mesh systems like the MRx0 don't do multi-network and VLAN support.
