Creating VLAN for public WIFI with Netgear

Asked by keithslater in Network Switches & Hubs, Network Routers, Wireless Network Access Points

Tags: vlan networking netgear

I am trying to create a separate VLAN for public WIFI at our office.  All I want the public WIFI to have access to is just the internet.  I don't want them to be able to access anything else.  I am using a Netgear GS748TS switch and Netgear FVS336G router and Netgear WG302v2 access point.  I have 2 security profiles in my access point, 1 is for the private and one for public.  My private one is using VLAN 1 and the public one is set to VLAN 2.

The part I get confused at is what to do about the tagged and untagged ports.  I need the Access point to see the router on both VLANs.  So I have 2 cables coming from the router to the switch.  I have one that should be the VLAN 2 port and one that is VLAN 1.  For some reason though when I do this, the router just starts sending traffic back and forth rapidly and it locks up until I disconnect one of the cables and restart it.  What am I missing here?Start Free Trial
