Cudy WR3000E - VLANs?

Hello!

My problem is that I can't configure VLANs using the LuCI GUI. On a few other routers I have the option "Switch" under "Network". But that point simply doesn't exist at this cudy router WR3000E. Can I activate it somewhere in the GUI? Alternatively can I configure it directly in the config files? Is it a hardware problem?

Background for my config wish (at the moment): I use it as a simple AP with switch function and I want to use the WAN port as additional LAN port.

Regards,
Günther

You will use bridge-VLANs which is part of the DSA syntax.

You have vlans in Network - Devices - (br-lan) - Configure - VLAN filtering.

Remove AX3000 from the title, it's just advertisement from Cudy. Keep WR3000E, this is the real model reference.

Thank you (both), that seems to help:

At "Network" - "Interfaces" - "Devices" - "br-lan" - "Configure" there is "Bridge ports". At the pulldown I could set the checkbox at "wan". After applying everything is OK now :slight_smile: .

It's still a mystery for me: with "OpenWrt 24.10.4 (r28959-29397011cc)" for "TP-Link Archer C6 v2" I still have the "Switch" option, but with "OpenWrt 24.10.4 (r28959-29397011cc)" for "Cudy WR3000E v1" the option has gone. Never mind, it's ok now.

Thank you very much,
Günther

Separate switch menu is "old" architecture for switch configuration.

As stated before, this depends of the device. Roughly, old devices still have the swconfig package, and so the switch menu. Newer devices use DSA instead, and so have no switch menu. To configure vlan you must go inside the bridge menu

Thank you for the clarification :slight_smile:

Best regards,
Günther
