VLAN tagging wifi NAS speed
My ISP needs VLAN tag 10 to access internet. My NAS used to work great and fast before—without any issues when I was running without VLAN tagging enabled. Now the NAS is unusably slow (think KB/s). It is because of the VLAN tagging. I don't have any IPTV or similar so no device needs to talk to ISP directly. I've tried with a different router brands and it works as expected—they manage to separate ISP-required VLAN tagging from the subnetwork (192.168....) but my Netgear router doesn't seem to be able to do so after reading the threads in this community. I also have a bunch of Netgear triband extenders so changing this whole set up to a different brand might be too expensive.
- Do you have any advice to approach the separation of VLAN tagging from my subnetwork, please?
- Do I need to use some additional hardware to make this set up work with the requirement of having a VLAN tagging on? (e.g. a switch)
- (Newbie question) Would static routing fix this?
Network configuration:
Optical socket | Converter | Router | | NAS Wifi devices (TV, phones, Google Home etc)
Router firmware: V1.0.4.46_10.1.63 (Auto update: On)
Router VLAN set up:
Enabled: yes, Name: Internet, VLAN ID: 10, Priority: 0, Wired: all, Wireless: all
Smart Connect is on.
No other features enabled as I did a factory reset from the dashboard (not the 30-30-30).
All cabling is Cat5e + it's a gigabit router and computer's wifi trying to copy files over support higher wifi throughput (MacBook Pro 2019).
My wifi coverage is uninterfered with strong signal everywhere as it's a new real estate development (double-checked with WifiAnalyzer).
When connected with a cable directly to the router, the speed is to move files around is incredible.
