QUOTE(jio @ Sep 6 2017, 06:00 PM) 1. Instead on getting using 2 TP-Link smart switch, it will be much better to use Mikrotik Hex R3 in place of SW1 & only use smart switch on the other end. 1. Just wanted to use back what I have on hand so didn't source for a new router.2. For your current setup to work, you need to connect another network cable from the router LAN port back to the SW1. 3. I think you mistakenly write 500&600 untagged for the homeplug. It should be tagged internet (not 500, maybe use 10) & iptv (600). 2. Ya, sorry I missed that part out 3. U mean switch to switch should be tagged? But why vlan10 and not 500? |

QUOTE(soonwai @ Sep 6 2017, 09:35 PM) wayne You PMed me about this but I'll just reply here for sake of sharing. soonwai yea sure, dont mind sharing. but i am noobie, will ask stupid questions. really thankful for all your patience.Here's a simplified diagram of what's in my house. It's almost exactly as what jio suggests and explained above. If you don't want to get additional equipment but just use back the switches that you already have, it's also possible. As jio pointed out, you need one cable from the Asus back to the switch. Something like this, using your original diagram. Ya, i will just use back whatever devices i have for now. ok so according to the adjustments, the network should be as per diagram. apologize for the ugly diagram haha. ![]() Question 1. So i just maintain all the connections to the Asus router? any changes for devices or gateway config? 2. Android box or any devices will still get the DHCP ip addresses from Asus router? i will give it a test and see if it works. i am only worried bout the homeplug portion, have to test if it works. hopefully the homeplug is dumb and just pass on the traffic.

QUOTE(soonwai @ Sep 7 2017, 04:15 PM) No problem. The fact that you already have 2 managed switches in your hands tells me that you're no noob. Diagram looks good. Ugly but good. thanks for the compliment, need to keep learning from ppl like you and jio1. Yeah, we keep the Asus in the dark. As far as it is concerned, nothing has changed. 2. Affirmative 3. No worries about the homeplugs, they will or should just pass on whatever traffic that goes into them. What brand homeplugs? alright let me test it out and i shall share the outcome here. dont think many ppl want to do such mad design at a home network haha |
