Recently I bought a Cisco RV345 in order to replace the router/modem/switch (ZTE ExperiaBox V10) that was supplied by my ISP. My ISP published following requirements in order to make use of an own router.
- WAN Protocol: MAC Encapsulated Routing
- WAN1 1p/VLAN ID: 1/34
- WAN3 1p/VLAN ID: 5/4
- PPPoE passthrough function: Enable
What we see is that a VLAN on WAN side is required and therefore I have chosen to buy the RV345 which supports this.
My router has Firmware Version: 1.0.03.15
Unfortunately whatever I try, I don’t get a working connection with my ISP. My ISP seems not to release an IP address to my WAN with following settings:
Sub-interface WAN 1.34
- VLAN 34
- Connection type : DHCP
- DNS Server: Use DHCP Provided DNS Server
I have tried with and without MAC Address cloned from ExperiaBox
Sub-interface WAN 1.4
- VLAN 4
- Connection type : DHCP
- DNS Server: Use DHCP Provided DNS Server
Added both Sub-WANs to the Multi WAN Interface Setting Table.
Interface = Precendence
WAN 1.34 = 1
WAN 1.4 = 2
WAN 1 = 3
WAN 2 = 4
USB 1 = 5
USB 2 =6
Whatever I try, I don’t get an IP Address released / assigned to my WAN 1.34 and 1.4.
When I put a managed switch between my NTU and Router and untag VLAN 34 and connect this to WAN1 then I do get an IP Address (but only after re-powering the NTU)
What am I doing wrong as I am really puzzled by this.
Thanks!
