I'm following the DD-WRT instruction to get TP-Link WR740N v3's Port 4 on a different VLAN, but this doesn't happen.

First, I have no "Setup > VLANs" settinngs tab in DD-WRT v24-sp2 (07/20/12) std r19519.

I can get Internet on Wi-Fi if assigning eth1 to "WAN Port", but then all Ethernet ports get on the same VLAN and any wired connection grabs the DHCP address and Internet connection from router.

When following the "old" instruction, if I run, say, nvram set vlan2ports="2 5*", should there appear a new interface, vlan2, in ifconfig, after ifconfig vlan2 up?

It doesn't - does it mean there is no support for different VLANs in my software/hardware?

What am I missing?

Is it impossible to create more VLANs on TP-Link740?

VLAN ID 4095 for guest VLAN tagging

as seen on Server Fault - Search for 'Server Fault'
Just want to know if it's true that if you use the VLAN ID 4095 for guest VLAN tagging, then vMotion will not work correctly as there is nowhere to pass back the reverse arp to? So, the problem we have noticed is when we have vmotioned VM's that are tagged on our trunk network, you cannot ping them… >>> More
