        Can anyone tell me if they've had any luck running VLAN on a
Cisco router (ROAST) with Linksys or Netgear switches? I specifically
refer to 802.1q protocol.

        Regards,

I've done Netgear. Why would you think there'd be any problems if
everybody supports the IEEE standard? Pretty much the reason there are
standards, that companies usually are compatible. Pretty rare to be
incompatible that way.

That said, since the 802.1q capable switches are rare in the Linksys
portfolio, you better read the data sheets carefully to find the few
models that do support .1q trunking, and their capabilities.
Netgear isn't quite so rare.

You'll still be looking at a $350-$600 switch to get this capability
from either vendor.
