So I read this like, fourteen hours ago, and I started to reply that no, I can’t; Orbi Pro 6 will only allow a port to carry one VLAN–which you have to assign–unless it’s a Orbi satellite or my Orbi router-turned-AP. Devices won’t. I tested this a lot.
But. I hadn’t tested my switches, at least since I got these specific ones. Apparently, my Netgear switches also get the full trunk, because they’re all smart managed. So I set up the VLANs in the switches, assigned them to ports, and moved Yellow onto the appropriate port. I also had to turn off mDNS sharing between VLAN1 and VLAN20/VLAN30 very quickly because mDNS nightmare but–yeah, that worked.
Thank you. I hadn’t even thought about it because it failed (badly) with my other switches, but here we are. Running discovery tests now with the IoT VLAN to see if everything is still reachable and do some fine-tuning.
