I was told that's not possible with 500g but I am not totally sure.
But I am pretty sure you can do it with wl500gx because I managed to do it on my wl500gx. But it will have these names like eth0.2, eth0.3 and so on. For all intents and purposes, you could use it like normal eth interfaces.

The 4 LAN ports are not seperable, but the 3 devices of the router are built in a bridge.
You can list the bridge with brctl show: this will show a br0 device.
To seperate an interface from the bridge, you can use brctl delif <bridge> <interface>, but you have to set your IP settings manual.
This forum has some posts concerning the bridge control: you might want to search for "br0 OR brctl"
thnx....
i've used
ifconfig br0 down
brctl delif eth0
brctl delif eth2
brctl delbr br0
and then setup each interface separatly...
word of advice: this can be done only when connected over wireless interface, or make a script with all configuration and execute it, because after the first command you can't access ap over lan or wan port...

Um... what if you just didn't execute the first command at all...

hi, can you give us some mini-howto? do you use modified rc/vlan.c ? or have you created some tool to configure internal switch from CLI ?
