I was wondering if it would be possible to have a 3rd
nic (pcie) that could be use as the apmrnet gateway to hamprnet for my allocation.
USB NIC may be cheaper and more versatile than PCIe when performance is
not an issue. AFAIK there's no up-to-date list of supported USB NICs for
OpenWRT. But Realtek RTL8153 chipset is known to work well ($10-$15 on
Amazon)
Another approach is to use VLANs. This requires a VLAN-capable switch.
You can split a "physical" Ethernet interface in several "virtual"
networks, each of them appearing as a separate network card with its own
IP on your OpenWRT router. On your switch, you can tag (=affect) any
Ethernet port to any of your virtual networks. It requires some time and
practice to understand how it works, but it's a very versatile solution
for managing and isolating several networks. F/ex ,at home, I have 4
VLANs : professional, family, home automation/IOT, HAM
