VLAN tagging, and VLAN tag 10 on Openwrt 23.05.5

Hello, I live in Switzerland, have fiber internet, a converter, and I want to use the TP-Link AX23 router. However, my internet provider specified these settings:

"Please note that certain settings are required on the device you want to connect via the converter. It must receive the IP via DHCP (not PPPoE) and support VLAN tagging with VLAN tag 10 on the WAN port."

My question: Could you explain how to configure these settings on OpenWrt version 23.05.5? Thank you very much for your help!

You add vlan device, then change wan/wan6 interface device to to that new vlan device (note interface is abstract concept, not directly matching physical port here)
Drop a line if you need more detailed guidance.

Could you explain in more detail where to go and what to enter?

Luci:
Network/Interfaces -> change tab to devices
Add 1q vlan to WAN device (only vlan ID and correct device needed)


Save and apply...
Now change tab to "interfaces" and change WAN-s physical device to just created (eth0.10 in my picture)

Save and apply, ping google...

thank you very much,i wish many karma points for you :slight_smile:

wan interface MTU should be 4 bytes bigger than 1500 on wan.10 (or 1496/1500, check provider's documentation)
