Can Shadow do PPPoE and set VLAN ID?

[frabjous]

My new ISP doesn't supply a router, so I'm considering using my Shadow. The ISP advises me: "You will need a router capable of doing PPPoE on the WAN port and the ability to set a custom VLAN ID in order to use our service." Does the Shadow meet these requirements?

Yup, it does: Ethernet - GL.iNet Router Docs 4

But the Shadow is very low-powered; you should reconsider if it will fit your needs.
You mostly won't be able to reach the ISPs speeds. Consider using a Flint instead, for example. See Product Comparison - GL.iNet

AP for Flint 2 router

Your best bet would be anything that has the performance you're seeking that runs or can be flashed with 'pure' OpenWrt... like a Flint v1 ('GL.iNet GL-AX1800' on the 'SNAPSHOT' series) or a Beryl AX (has a 2.5GbE port) ('GL.iNet GL-MT3000' also on 'SNAPSHOT'). You can find various wall mounts for the Beryl AX on one of the 3-D print plan web sites like thingiverse. The Slate Plus (GL-A1300) has OpenWrt support since v24.10, IIRC. Pure OWRT will guarantee the flexibility to re-assign the WAN p…

All Flints (1/2/3) are better than a Shadow for local routing.
But yeah, I would go with a Flint 2 or 3 instead.
