I set up a Vigor 2830 during the weekend and got pretty much everything pinned down just how it needs to be.

One thing that is required is to run WiFi f ro visitors and guests.

They will NOT require access to any of the LAN shares and services and it would be preferable to have all WiFi clients on an entirely separate subnet, purely for the purposes of allowing them web access for email/VPN.

The LAN is on a 10.0.10.x range and I would like to implement a 192.168.1.x range for WiFi guest users.

I have to be missing something very obvious - is it (broadly) as simple as setting up a VLAN to bind to a specific SSID to feed subnet addresses to clients connected to it ?

Never done this before so any pointers would be appreciated.

Yes, literally, it's like that. Just map your guest SSID to a different VLAN to your main network.

Done.
