Netgear GS105E Setup Cinfiguration
(Just noticed i posted this same post in the wrong discussion subsection - if a Mod. can delete that post please).
Hi
Just purchased a Netgear GS105E gigabit ethernet switch looking for some guidance on setup configuration.
So my ISP router is connected to the ONT - ethernet cable running from the LAN port of ISP router to upstairs
where it's connected to the switch (PORT 1)
PORT 2 = Video Games Console
PORT 3 = Empty
PORT 4 = Router 2 (giving out Wifi access)
PORT 5 = Router 3 (giving out Wifi access)
ISP router and router 2 & 3 all have different static LAN IP - router 2 & 3 are connected from switch to their WAN port.
As of now i'm getting zero connection from router 2 & 3. (This is why i need help to setup VLANs - i may have configured them wrong)
What i want is to setup VLANs to keep routers 2 & 3 isolated. I also want to place the Video Games Console in VLAN -
Does the afforementioned have to be trunked through PORT 1 ? or can i have the Games Console set as Untagged but still
on VLAN ?
I'm a total novice with network switches so if anyone here can walk me through the above setup that would be great.

Still the wrong section - the GS105E is a Plus switch, covered in the Plus And Smart Switches Forum and intended to discuss Smart Switches (T) and Plus Switches (E), including Local and Remote Management.
Of course, you can configure three VLANs on the GS105E to bring the three LANs of these three routers to a VLAN each.
For simplicity, I suggest to keep the typical admin network on the LAN of your primary router, from here you can manage your switch and more if desired.
