Hello,
I am using internet + IPTV and trying to setup my Asus RT-66U for this (Firmware Version:3.0.0.4.266.23 (Merlin build)).
The schema of IPTV provider is here (how it is working with their provided router):
IPTV is tagged in VLAN6 802.1q(?).
In short I want to have:
1 port for internet connection / LAN (untagged)
2 port for internet connection / LAN (untagged)
3 IPTV (Motorola) (tagged VLAN6)
4 IPTV (Motorola) (tagged VLAN6)
p.s. VLAN5 is tagger for remote management I don't need that.
First I set LAN > IPTV setting manual and put VID 6 | PRIO 0 for IPTV (LAN port 4) other settings left blank.
Using this setup IPTV is working fine on router port 4 IPTV, but there is no internet connection (wan).
I checked nvram settings with this setup:

What I can see that vlan1ports changed from "1 2 3 4 8*" to "1 2 8*" that is fine as I am trying to use 3,4 for IPTV
Also wan_ifnames and wan0_ifname changed from eth0 to vlan
Tried to revert changes to ifnames ussing commands:
nvram set wan_ifnames=eth0
nvram set wan0_ifname=eth0
nvram commit
reboot
But after router restart values were not changed and reverted to vlan.
Read in other forums for Tomato (or dd-wrt) based routers it's enough to configure VLAN ports as:
nvram set vlan1ports="2 3 4 8*"
nvram set vlan6ports="0t 1 8t"
nvram set vlan6hwname=et0
nvram commit
reboot
p.s. here ports in reverse order meaning port1 is physical port 4, port3 physical port 2
etc.
Any ideas how to fix this? Maybe I need to setup bridge connection or similar.
I like Asus firmware and Merlin build, design, functionality and everything looks very cool.
