I found several topics in which VLAN topic is discussed, but i still not able to configure my Omnia to connect with my internet provider (Movistar FTTH - Spain).
My provider requires that the traffic over the WAN interface is tagged with id 6, and the rest can be untagged (I don´t have other services like IPTV or phone over ip). With other routers is fairly easy to configure, even with openwrt, but with omnia every attempt seems to fail. Anyone could explain how i must configure the “Switch” section in Luci?
I’ve been struggling with the same issue for days (my provider in XS4ALL FTTH in The Netherlands). Today I finally managed to get the router connected to the internet. Hopefully we can sort this out together
These are the relevant settings (assuming that you are using the wan port on the router):
Editing the switch configuration is actually not needed, adding a “custom interface” (eth1.6 - for VLAN 6) as per the second screenshot is enough!
You don’t have to change anything in the Switch section, the WAN socket doesn’t go through the switch. Just change physical WAN interface from eth1 to eth1.6.
You are right. I removed the entry and it still works. The wired clients are also accessible now. Thank you so much! I will update my previous post too. On to the next challenge, there’s so much to learn!
Were you able to configure your router for Orange?
In the case of movistar, and assuming that you don´t have IPTV or phone over ip, it´s only configure WLAN with tagged traffic with ID 6 (so eth1.6), and as Ondrej pointed, you only need to setup the WAN interface as custom and et voilá.
Yes thank you. I was able to configure the router simply by changing the physical WAN interface to (in the case of orange) eth1.832
WAN6 (for IPv6) still doesn’t work but that’s ok for now. The change is abysmal in my case and I’m very happy with the result right now. I will progressively get into more options.
I also have Orange (ES) but over a fibre line from Movistar (NEBA). Apparently, then it has to run over VLAN 20. I needed to clone the MAC, and then set the underlying interface (eth1) to either promiscuous mode (ip link set eth1 promisc on), or shut the interface down and then change the mac there too (ifconfig eth1 hw ether <mac>). Then DHCP would get a lease, and the traffic flows.
I have created wan2 using eth1.6 as described in this thread. How do I determine which Omnia port to plug the second wan link into? My existing link via the Omnia WAN port works fine; but I’m not successfully connecting thru the new wan2.
My “VLANs on Switch 0” display on the switch tab does not include the port status graphics indicating which ports are connected. I see only the two VLAN information rows. Any idea why?
At this juncture I think I have resolved my “which physical port on the back of the Omnia” question. Also I’m no longer using 1.6; rather 0.3, which is the vlan created as described in the above linked pages. No connection thru to internet on wan2, as yet.
What are you trying to achieve? This thread is not about setting up 2 wan interfaces, but about setting up a wan connection on a specific VLAN. My understanding of both the router and openwrt is still very limited, but I think eth0.x is port 0-3 and eth1.x is port 6 (which is the wan port, for numbers refer to the screenshot above).
I am attempting to configure a second wan interfaces for concurrent use with the wan port - two different ISP links. I expect to use mwan3 for load balancing. My wan interface works via the wan port. I don’t seem to be making the hardware interface connection for wan2.Note that the openWRT doc mentioned in my previous post adds a vlan as one of the setup steps.
My installation does not display the Port Status line / images, as in your image:
I’ve been looking at vlan.lua, and suspect that the “missing” code would go here:
local pt
for pt = 0, num_ports - 1 do
local name
name = (pt == cpu_port) and translate("CPU") or translatef("Port %d", pt)
sp:value(pt, name)
mp:value(pt, name)
end
end
**>>>>>>> I think the graphic with the status by port would go here <<<<<<<<<**
-- VLAN table
s = m:section(TypedSection, "switch_vlan",
switch_title and translatef("VLANs on %q (%s)", switch_name, switch_title)
or translatef("VLANs on %q", switch_name))
Could you kindly post the relevant part of your vlan.lua file so that I can figure out how to make this graphic status display work? Or is there an extension that I need to install to create it?
