Powerconnect 2748 Trunking/VLAN setup with 1841 Cisco Router

Hello all,

Recently I have been trying to setup a set of VLAN's to separate some virtual servers from the real servers on another subnet. I have a dell powerconnect 2748 switch. Currently I need two ports (three including the trunk) on one VLAN and all the rest on the other. I don't want to use the native (VLAN 1) VLAN for anything. I am just not sure how to setup the Trunk ports to work. This weekend I tried setting up port one as the trunk, and put the two VLANs in the works. I made the port use tagged for both VLANS (T in the port 1 box for both VLANS), but left all the other ports as Untagged. I setup the Cisco router correctly with static routes and DOT1Q encapsulation. I could ping/connect to other computers in the same subnet as my own, but could not ping, or connect to the router or internet or external subnets.

VLAN 1 (native) was setup with no ports on it
VLAN 20 was port 1 setup with a T and ports 2-46 set as untagged
VLAN 30 was port 1 setup with a T and ports 47,48 set with untagged.

Could anyone give me insight on to what I am doing wrong or if I am just over-complicating things by taking out the native VLAN? Thanks for any help!

Thanks to myself for figuring this one out without anyone's support. Way to go forums! On my switch the designated port had to be a part of the VLAN on both the VLAN membership page and on the port setup page. I had to go in and manually set it's PVID to only the PVID of the VLAN it belonged to in order to work.
