I have an Orbi RBR750 Home system (2 satellites) connected to a Virgin Hub (192.168.0.1) which is set to modem mode.
The Orbi acts as a DHCP for my network, 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0.
I have connected the Orbi Router to a 16 port managed switch (GS716Tv3) through port 1.
I want to configured vLans for devices, including Sky TV systems (VLAN10), household devices such as house alarm, heating etc. (VLAN20) and a general vLan for all other devices (VLAN30).
Port 1: Connected to router VLAN1.
Ports 2-6: SKY VLAN10 192.168.10.0 mask: 255.255.255.0 enable DHCP
Ports 7-10 HOUSE VLAN20 192.168.20.0 mask: 255.255.255.0 enable DHCP
Ports 11-16 OTHERS VLAN30 192.168.30.0 mask: 255.255.255.0 enable DHCP
I cannot see a way on the Orbi Login software to make it VLAN aware, is there a solution to this? Thank you. Smart Switch Series (GS716Tv3)

Ignore me, I now know this won't work and I need a Firewall/Router. I've managed to pick up a secondhand Prosafe Srx5308 Router/Firewall which I know will work as I have the documentation from Netgear on configuring the switch connected to this Router. Thanks again for your help and apologies for getting the solution wrong myself, still learning.

To my knowledge, the Orbi Home systems don't come with any VLAN support matching the Netgear Smart Managed Pro switches (all supporting industry standard 802.1q).

No, if the Orbi Login software does not have an option to make it VLAN aware, there is no solution for this. The VLAN functionality may not be supported by the Orbi router, or it may require a different software or hardware setup.

Re: Orbi RBR750 working with GS716Tv3 working with VLANS
Thank you both, thought as much.
If I put a Netgear ProSafe GS105Ev2 5 port switch between the modem and the managed 16 port switch which does support VLANs, and just use the Orbi for the WiFi mesh system as an access point, I think that would work and only cost me about £30?
