Looks like the only way to do it with your router would be to change the 
firmware to DD-WRT as the chart here shows your router being supported. 
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices

Then go here https://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Tutorials and look 
for the VLAN Detached Networks entry in the advanced tutorials section.

Good luck
