The GS1900-8 is a fanless 8 port gigabit managed switch. It has a web interface to set it up, and is ideal as a small VLAN capable switch.

The modems are not VLAN-aware, or even if they are we don't need them to be. We'll set ports 1-4 to tag incoming packets with the correct VLAN, and to send packets to the modems as untagged.
Ports 5, 6 and 7 will be unused, these could be used to access the switch config if you wanted.
