Re: [Cerowrt-devel] VLAN - enabling the VLAN functionality hangs my router - Potential Firmware bug or newbie finger trouble

[Kenneth Finnegan <kennethfinnegan2007@gmail.com>]

Have you tried reaching the router via a WiFi interface after enabling VLANs?

I ran into this same issue, and it was due to the defaults on the
switch tab not properly tagging and untagging VLAN1 traffic into the
CPU to be reachable via Ethernet.  I could still reach it via WiFi,
but not the LAN interface.

I don't remember exactly what I changed and no longer have anything
running CeroWRT to check for you, but try playing with the
tagged/untagged option on the CPU port of the switch and the VLAN tag
on the LAN interface to make them match.
