      Apologies if this should go on a differnet forum. If thats the case I will gladly delete. I am having a hard time wrapping my head around two things. First is the tagging and untagging. I am not sure why it doesnt click. Could anyone tell me based on my diagram if I am setting up the network correctly and why or why not. Additonally I just purchased a TPLINK AP. I cant figure out for the life of me what my internet/wan settings should be. It seems that this page is expecting a TPLINK router to be feeding this AP. So what do I do when its not a router but instead another TPLINK switch getting fed from Pfsense. Thanks in advance.

        You almost certainly don't want to have VLAN1 tagged on any port. VLAN1 should usually exist inside the switch only so you should probably just have that untagged on 1 and 5-8 or only on 1 with every other port excluded.

        I don't expect an AP like that to be doing any routing so I would try to disable the WAN ports entirely and setup only a LAN. Though I don't have any direct experience with Omada gear like that.
