Switch VLAN issue
Using 16 port Netgear Switch GS716T (version 3 i believe)
Port 1 cabled to Router
Port 2 cabled to Access Point
Port 3-16 client devices
Switch has default VLAN 1
Access point guest traffic gets a VLAN ID of 10
I created a VLAN 10 with ports 1 and 2 as members and both Tagged
I did not remove these from VLAN 1 on the Port VID Config page since they still need to belong to VLAN 1.
I'm trying to get both office devices (vlan id 1) and guest devices (vlan id 10) to both use the internet (port 1).
I'm not getting a IP via DHCP on wireless devices (states unable to obtain a IP address).
What have I done wrong?
Thanks,
Darryl

Does the router support multiple networks, is the router port configured for the additional tagged VLAN, is there a dedicated IP subnet configured on this additional network, and last but not least is there DHCP service active for the additional network?

I just checked all of these and they appear to be set correctly.
so there is not a need for the VID configuration to set these 2 ports to vlan 10? again the 2 ports are the internet connection to the switch and the AP port on the switch).
Thanks!

Both the port to the router and the AP need to have this VLAN 10 added as tagged. Check the Sonicwall config for proper tagging on the same port.
