The router-on-a-stick is a compelling approach, though I ran into an obstacle when thinking about it for my setup: The router needs to terminate PPPoE and in order to keep 1500 MTU for Internet connections a MTU of 1508 is used for the ONT--Router ethernet link. Putting this in a VLAN would mean a weird setup with mixed MTUs for different VLANs, sounds like a headache. Haven't got around to experimenting with this.
Yeah not sure how to handle PPPoE! Interesting challenge. I imagine you’ll probably need enterprise switches to make that work?
