In this tutorial, we are going to install OpenWRT on the Raspberry Pi 4. Since there is only one physical network interface, we will setup 2 VLANs for WAN and LAN with a switch that supports VLAN - TP Link TL-SG108E.
This tutorial should work with any single port device, such as x86 PC, Raspberry Pi, Nano Pi and Orange Pi, etc.
Summary about the setup: We will use VLAN 1 for our LAN devices to minimize the configuration. VLAN 10 will be setup for WAN interface with DHCP protocol. On the switch, port 1 is connected to the ISP router with port 1 tagged VLAN 10. Switch port 2 will be connected to the OpenWRT router, it is tagged with VLAN 10 as well. Port 3 to 8 will be used for LAN devices. Port 2 to 8 is untagged with VLAN 1.
If you have any problem with WAN connection, please try to change Port 1 (to the ISP router) on the switch from tagged to untagged .
A tagged port is also know as a Trunk-Port and an untagged port is also know as an Access-Port
