    Hello @atux_null

    Your setup requires configuring port 1 (eth1) as a trunk port to allow traffic from all VLANs to reach your router. To achieve this, set port 1 as a Tagged Egress Member (orange box) for each VLAN and its PVID at 1.

    For other ports (eth2 → eth5), it is important to know if the connected devices are VLAN-aware to determine the correct VLAN configuration.

    Please consult our detailed FAQ for step-by-step guidance:

    Remember, ensuring your router is configured to recognize these VLANs is crucial for successful communication.
