I need to use the switch ports (WIC-4ESW) with my 1711 router it has 1 real lrouted Fast Ethernet and a 4 port 10/100 switch tht is only L@, someone how i have to make VLANS or virtual interfaces, if someon e could help i would be very glad!! jeffp1 AT gmail d0t com

It's a wireless router, so you may not need to use a port at all.

You can connect to any of the ports numbered 1 through 4. The yellow Internet port should connect to your outside network. (Cable modem or router or Ethernet port from your Internet service provider.)

You did not explainhaow you connected all your equipment together.
Connect your PC and PS3 into the 5 port switch.
Connect your DSL modem into the 5 port switch, if there is a WAN/internet port on the 5 port switch then connect the DSL model into this port.
You may need to power off the 5 port switch wait a 1 min and power up the 5 port switch again so it can setup an IP address table for the connected ports.
If this still does not work the replace the 5 port switch with a normal 5 port hub.

When you use the older Netgear RO318 Router, make sure you don't use the WAN/Internet port, only use the numbered switch ports of the router.

DSL out to router, then from ports 1-4, your choice, into the switch.

If there is only 1 ethernet port on your router it sounds like this is the port for your modem to connect to your router and that your router is only built for wireless. If you want to connect computers via ethernet cable you will need either a new router with a 4 port switch or a new wireless router with a 4 port switch. (you can get more than 4 ports if you have more that 4 computers).

A switch is a device for networking computers printers or other devices with an ethernet port. Most common scenario would be to hook a cat5 cable from your broadband router's lan port to Port 1 and then connect your other ethernet devices to the remaining ports. In order for the devices to cmmunicate you'll want to make sure that they are on the same ip subnet. Usually, 192.168.1.x.
Your router may be 192.168.1.1, your PC 192.168.1.100 Printer 192.168.1.101. Each device needs a unique IP address.
Hope that helps.

I can help you with the IOS you need, but Cisco does not list 12.3.x XC, they only have YZ, YG, XR, XK, XG for this router. Email me at [email protected] for more help.

There really isn't much to setting up an ethernet switch hub. Plug a network cable into your router LAN connection and into port 1 or uplink port of your switch. All other computers will attach to ports 2 to 8. If you have an Uplink port and port 1, they usually can only be used singlely. That is to say use either the Uplink or port 1 Using both disables the switch hub.

Going through the GUI would take too long, so use CLI to add the commands below. After that, check the GUI and see how those changes appear.

VLANs:
On all equipment use 802.1q tagging. The example below puts adsl ports 1 to 10 in vlan10 and ports 11-12 in vlan2. These vlans are 802.1q tagged on the ethernet ports.

switch vlan set 1 1~12:X enet1~enet2:FT DEFAULT
switch vlan set 2 1~10:X 11~12:FU enet1~enet2:FT VLAN2
switch vlan set 10 1~10:FU 11~12:X enet1~enet2:FT VLAN10
switch vlan set 17 1~12:X enet1~enet2:FT VLAN17
switch vlan pvid 1~10 10
switch vlan pvid 11~12 2
switch vlan pvid enet1~enet2 1
switch vlan priority * 0
switch vlan gvrp * disable
switch vlan frametype * all
switch vlan cpu set 1

ATM circuit:
Each port requires one or more VPI/VCI circuit. You could map different circuits to corresponding vlans. The config below creates a primary circuit 1/35 on each port. On ports 5 and 9 is another circuit 1/32 mapped to vlan10

adsl pvc set * 1 35 super DEFVAL
adsl pvc set 5,9 1 32 10 0 DEFVAL

Remember a dslam is just a switch, bridging packets from a VC onto a VLAN or straight onto ethernet.
