I was only answering your question above, if you need it or not, I cannot tell, but it's not mandatory.

I understand, but was wondering this question, if I would implement your suggestion to add a x86 box with only two ports and use the t56 as a switch and AP.
what about it, I still don't understand what the question is ... 
The question is. My x86 box will have eth0 (wan) and eth1 (lan). Put eth1 in a bridge or not because there is only one interface?
the bridge is only for the T-56 AP, not your main router, leave the wan and lan as they are on the x86.

DSA Vlan tagging not supported? Enabled it but have to reset my router as it is not responding anymore
Router not reachable after enabling them would be proof of VLANs working ?
Create a new thread in https://forum.openwrt.org/c/general/6 requesting help in setting them up.
Na, has nothing to do with that.
I know how to configure vlan’s and how to enable it on a specific port which would not make it unreachable. If so, it would be only for a specific port.
Something is just broken using DSA vlan filtering which makes the router not response anymore and unusable after applying unchecked when no response came.
Probably bug in this device, or software version..
well, people got it to work (for WAN) on 24.10.0, but ran into the speed nego issue instead -
For WAN indeed I got it also working, because it is needed for my ISP. No problems with that, no flapping or whatsoever.
Problem is VLAN filtering on switch (lan) side..
Hi,
I have 2 devices with firmware V5.70(ACEA.0)T56C_b10_0410
Is there any way to install it? I have a locked bootloader unfortunately and when i login with supervisor and that password it says wrong password.
Unfortunately no, not yet. I'm working on it but progress goes very slow and I dont have a lot of time.
Okay let me know if i can do anything, what is your main attack vector? Scripting/editing the webui? I want to help and have time now.
Biggest problem now is disabling secure boot.so that we can use mtk_uartboot again. The BROM got locked. It was in the bl2.img that runs when you get the new update.
Now its doing also some kind of key verification for the partitions to check if the right firmware is there.
If anyone likes to provide me a t-56 with b10_0140 for a low price that would be great. Me and also the community will appreciate it.
Ive already bricked 1 device and i believe that there will follow more while im trying to get openwrt flashed on b10_0140.
I can’t afford to buy a new one for 40 euros every time.
Now ive flashed my own t-56 which already had openwrt back to the odido firmware and im waiting for the b10_0140 update.
One of the changes in the new -- SNAPSHOT r31062-e74cd41744 / LuCI Master 25.253.73204~220531f -- is a name change:
config interface 'wan'
option device ‘eth1’
config interface ‘wan’
option device ‘wan’
...if anyone asks why the Internet connection does not work after updating while maintaining the configuration...

Are there any benefits of using hardware offloading if you don’t use SqM for example?
Compared to the CPU?
I am running 1gb PPPoE and the CPU can handle it, but I could also enable hardware offload
Lower energy consumption? Lower CPU temperatures? If the CPU is not under load, it can be used to a greater extent, for example, for USB file transfers.
I still have a little hope for the hardware QOS…
But for latency or network quality no benefits or negative impact?
I haven't noticed any negative impact. But I don't have much experience with networks, so maybe I shouldn't comment on this. We are not talking about QOS and Bufferbloat here.
Hw accel kills SQM, if I remember correctly, since it takes shortcuts...
