Hello again James,
I really appreciate your help, as I stand at the moment I have no
working configuration that does what I want it to. On my test router
that is sitting on my desk, VLANs are not supported, but the router that
is live does have VLAN support. However, this live router is a cheap
solution and it is very likely that this could change at some point.
With this in mind, a setup that doesn't rely on a router with VLANs is
preferable, but that being said, if I can't achieve this then I will
have to use the VLAN features of the router.
It would also be ideal If i could get routing working on the switch,
since I will, eventually, use this switch to route between a number of
VLANs in this building, and so, although the temporal effect is probably
negligible, it seems it would be a better candidate to route between
VLANs in this building.

I think i will stop trying to help. If Steven tries to follow two
peoples advice at the same time it is not going to work. My fix is
based on there being no trunk ports. Wayne's uses trunk ports and i
don't think it will work because the internet router do not do vlans.

That is excellent Wayne, thank you very much.
I will test this configuration later on today. The DLINK router is
very dumb and doesn't support VLANs or anything fancy like that.
However, this is a mock set-up I have running in my office; I know
the router in the actual network - who's name I can't even
pronounce - does support VLANs and tagging. So if I can't get it
running on my set up I will do a live test.
I'll let you know how it goes.

Morning
The internet router is in port 1, the laptop is in port 5.
I have now set
the router port as a trunk on the switch.
Port 5 is on a different subnet to port 1, the laptop is
10.1.202.0 and the
router 10.1.201.0
I set the static addresses of the laptop as follows:
ip: 10.1.202.10
subnet: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 10.1.202.1 (this is the VLAN ip address, I have
tried giving it the
router ip address but it didn't work... maybe I should try
the internet VLAN
address?)
It is so close to working!
I forgot the HP's had trunk (bonded) ports we had trouble with
those
so did not use them with the latest firmware, I was referring
to Vlan
trunks. Vlans will not be active until one of the un-tagged
ports is
up (something connected to it)
Anyways this is how I would configure it.
Port 1 on the switch would be the vlan trunk port, this means
it needs
to be a member of all the vlans as a tagged port and will be
connected
to your router.
vlan 2
name "INTERNET"
untagged 2-5
ip address 10.1.201.2 255.255.255.0
tagged 1
exit
vlan 3
name "RESIDENTS"
untagged 6-24
ip address 10.1.202.2 255.255.255.0
tagged 1
exit
vlan 4
name "TEST"
untagged 25-48
ip address 10.1.205.3 255.255.255.0
tagged T1
exit
Dlink. I has never used one of these but in the Cisco world the
config would look like this
interface FastEthernet0/0
description Trunk to HP switch
no ip address
full-duplex
interface FastEthernet0/0.2
description INTERNET vlan
encapsulation dot1Q 2
ip address 10.1.201.1 255.255.255.0
interface FastEthernet0/0.3
description RESIDENTS vlan
encapsulation dot1Q 3
ip address 10.1.202.1 255.255.255.0
interface FastEthernet0/0.4
description TEST vlan
encapsulation dot1Q 4
ip address 10.1.205.1 255.255.255.0
The above configs leave all routing to the router and
switching to the
switch, the default gateway for any hosts will be the router's IP
