Hey All,

Having a bit of trouble with my network setup. I'm mostly a noob with very light understanding of what I'm working with, so bear with me.

I've got my opnsense box setup with mostly defaults set for rules. The opnsense box is hooked directly to an MB8611 modem on the WAN interface, with LAN interface running to an 8 port managed netgear switch on port 1 of the switch. I have port 2 of the switch hooked up to a vlan-aware access point. Other ports are occupied by physical links to some servers.

Everything on LAN works fine, including the access point. I have the access point setup with 3 SSIDs, all that can connect clients no problem. Some of the clients on the network are game consoles/gaming PCs that run into connectivity issues with some titles, I believe because of a strict NAT. Rather than just assigning outbound rules by static addresses, I opted to create a VLAN to house all gaming devices and segment them from the network. I don't need them to talk to each other or other devices.

I have created VLAN10, assigned it a gateway address of 192.168.10.0/24, setup DHCP and assigned the LAN as the parent interface. I created a new SSID on the access point and gave it the VLAN 10 tag. All of the ports on the switch are now assigned to default vlan1 with untagged traffic, and then ports 1 and 2 are assigned to vlan 10 with tagged traffic. Testing with an iPhone, this works totally fine. I get assigned the correct leases and can make outbound connections to the internet. Testing on a windows 11 gaming PC, previously connected to an untagged SSID and now switched over to the tagged SSID, I am unable to make outbound connections to the internet. Another android device that I connected with to the new SSID also worked fine, so I'm not sure what's up with this PC. I haven't tested other gaming devices yet.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong here?
