I'd like to configure a ' Guest ' network using a 2nd router connected to the ' Primary ' router. Diagram: modem --> [wan] WRT300n v1 [lan4] --> [wan] WRT54GS v4 (Primary Router) (Guest Router) Both routers are running the latest Tomato build from Shibby: Build5x-115-EN Dated:11/21/2013 tomato-K26-1.28.RT-MIPSR1-115-Mini Using the BW Limiter (included in Shibby's tomato -- thanks!) I limited available bandwidth for the guest router via MAC address. Pro's: Guest router can serve internet with limited bandwidth (and Shibby can even monitor web traffic as well as graph bandwidth by IP -- very nice!) Con's: Guest network is not seperated from primary network. Clients on guest network can still ping clients on primary network. The solution according to most guides I read was to setup VLAN's... Two isolated separate LAN subnets and rate limiting How to vlan your network with Tomato Creating a separate Guest Network with Tomato Set Up Guest Wireless with Tomato Setting Up DD-WRT on a Linksys WRT300N v1.0 ...but getting VLAN's to work on the WRT300n v1 (Primary router) was a little tricky since it doesn't come enabled by default due to the BCM4704 chipset . Even though I was able to follow the above...
