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.
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 .
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.
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
