Seperate Networks

[H4nn3s]

Hey,

I would like to set up two seperate networks, that can't access each other. I know a lot of routers have a guest mode, but on mine that is only for Wifi and I would like to use a Lan connection, to connect a different AP. It would also be nice if I could make settings, like the time when the internet is available. 

Can someone tell me what I need?

If your router supports it, you can create 2 different subnets that can't talk to each other (2 simple firewall rules can do this) and then disable clients from assigning their own IPs by requiring DHCP (I forget how to do this exactly because it's been so long but I know it's related to ARP requests for Mikrotik routers). From the DHCP server you can assign static DHCP leases so you can decide which devices receive which subnets. I have 4 different subnets (meaning my router has 4 gateway IPs assigned to it) on my network for the same reason as you and it's really easy to setup with a Mikrotik router and works over wired and wireless.

My router only supports that over wireless, but I would need a Lan connection. Is there any other way?

If your router doesn't support it you'll need a new router or get new firmware installed on your router (DD-WRT or Tomato are pretty popular).

Okay, thanks. I will think about that.
