There are several guides published in the Knowledge Base are on setting up and using VLANs. Have you worked through these guides?

YES I HAVE NOW THANK YOU. THAT ONE IS BASED ON USING IN_CONTROL. I HAVE A SMALL NETWORK WITH ONE BALANCE ONE CONTROLLING THE APs ON ONE AP PROFILE. THE BALANCE ONE IS CONFIGURED AT DEVICE LEVEL USING ON SITE WEB ADMIN.
I HAVE SET UP SEVERAL VLANS WHICH ARE CONFIGURED ACROSS THE NETWORK TO THE APS BY THE BALANCE ONE, NONE OF THESE VALNS SHOW UP ON IN CONTROL WHEN I USE THE “vlan_config” INSTEAD OF “overview”. JUST A SCREEN AS IF I AM SETTING UP A NEW VLAN.

YES I WORKED THROUGH THIS ONE BEFORE POSTING.

  1. IT IS BASED ON USING IN_CONTROL, BUT THATS NOT A BIG DEAL. HOWEVER:-
  2. MY NETWORK PRINTER IS NOT HARD WIRED TO THE BALANCE ONE, AS ABOVE IT IS ON A WIRELESS CONENCTION TO AN AP ON A SPECIFIC VLAN. I’D HAPPILY HARD WIRE IT BUT IT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE IN A BUILDING DATING TO 1883 WITH 13" WALLS THAT HAS VERY HIGH QUALITY MODERN FINISHES AND NO CABLE/VENT DUCTS ETC. IF I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO, I COULD TRY A PAIR OF NETWORK ADAPTORS THAT RUN ACROSS THE POWER CIRCUIT. BUT I WOULD MUCH RATHER FIND A WAY TO DO THIS USING THE BALANCE ONE THE AP AND I HAVE SOME NETGEAR SMART SWITCHES THAT I AM PRETTY FAMILIAR WITH.
  3. THIS GUIDE DOES NOT SHOW HOW TO SHARE PRINTERS ACROSS DIFFERENT VLANS AS FAR AS I COULD SEE BEFORE POSTING HERE. IT IS ABOUT USING FIREWALLS TO STOP ACCESS.

VLANs are an advanced networking feature that is standard in Peplink|Pepwave routers. Have you reached out to your local Certified Peplink partner that provided you with your device for assistance yet?
I BOUGHT THE BALANCE ONE IN FEB 2020 FOR MY OTHER PROPERTY IN ARIZONA, BUT IT IS NOW IN THE UK WHERE I AM NOW BASED. THE LOCAL PEPLINK PARTNER IS NOT IMPRESSIVE I HAVE FOUND IN THE PAST WHEN SEEKING SUPPORT FOR MY ORIGINAL SURFSOLO. A HIGH HOURLY RATE AND THE DIDN’T SEEM TO KNOW MUCH SPECIFIC TO THE DEVICE IN MY OPINION. I USED TO RUN A VERY SMALL TECH SUPPORT COMPANY SO HAVE VIEWS ON THIS SORT OF THING. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO USE VLANS ON MY SURF SOLO AND BALANCE ONE UNTIL NOW, BUT SETTING UP THIS WIRELESS NETWORK PRINTER AND TRYING TO SHARE IT ACROSS VLANS HAS DEFEATED ME TO DATE.
