How do I setup a local VLAN with no access to the internet (orbi pro mini)

I have an Orbi Pro min and satellite installed.  I would like to create a VLAN that can communicate with other devices on that VLAN, but not have access to the internet. 

 

I have streaming devices and some computers that I want to directly access the internet, and some that I want to always access the internet through a VPN without installing a VPN on each device.  I want to assign Wireless 3 to a local only VLAN and use a SFF (perhaps a NUC with Router on a stick) which will use that local only VLAN as input and use VLAN 1 as it's output.

 

Since all devices on wireless 3 get an address in the 192.68.30.xx range, (using the defaults)  is it as simple as blocking ALL for the range of devices 192.168.30.02 to 192.168.30.255?

VLANs on stock NETGEAR firmware are not true VLANs. They're there for specific ISP settings and IPTV. You cannot do much with them beyond this and certainly not what you ask.

Darn!! 🙂 🙂  I guess they'll go back on EBAY....and I'll work on a different approach  This is all hobby stuff....and I'm learning from my errors.  Time to investigate PfSense and some wired access points, routing by mac addresses (33 devices, but many can default.  Not ideal, but pfsense on a NUC using router on a stick, just as proof of concept.
