guest network

Since 386.5, I've ran into some compatibility issues with protected management frames on a IoT device. Completely disabling it resolves the issues, but then I cannot use WPA3. I just had to reconfigure a lot of devices back to WPA2 just to get the problematic device to work again. I tried...

I recently posted a related thread on SuperUser, but thought I'd post a modified version here to get advice specific to Asuswrt-Merlin. I'm planning to install a home surveillance system consisting of 7 PoE cameras recording 24/7 to my HTPC. I figured since my HTPC stays on 24/7, there's no...

I have a somewhat odd network configuration that I'm hoping the wizards here can help me get working as I need. Here are my requirements: I need to be able to remotely (within my house) enable & disable the wifi network. I want this to happen without exposing my router to the internet via...

I am using YazFi to assign guests to a unique IP address range (192.168.20.x) so guests can be routed to my WAN connection directly, bypassing my VPN. This appears to be working as expected, but I notice a potential issue when testing. I wonder if this is simply a consequence of how I'm...

I would like to enable the WiFi Guest Network feature. I'm using Asus Merlin 386.3_2 on an RT-AC86U. All my other traffic goes out via a VPN tunnel (and I'm using the VPN Director feature). Is it possible to direct WiFi Guests to the WAN interface instead of a VPN tunnel? EDIT: the solution is...

I have RT-AC56U router with john fork (374.43_49E4) and I have guest network enabled. I also have the YazFi add-on. I want the LAN device to see the devices on the Guest Network, and I do not want the devices on the Guest Network to see the LAN. I try to set it up in the YazFi add-on, but it...

Overview The following script adds support for the creation of additional IP networks for the ASUS RT-AC68U running Asuswrt-Merlin firmware. https://pastebin.com/hvHHic1V The impetus for the script came from another forum member. The original intent was to simply add a single VLAN to the...

So some background first on what I'm doing. I have an Asus AC66U running ASUSWRT-merlin (380.70). My main home network is running on 192.168.1.xxx/24 I'm planning to engage a freelance dev on fiverr to do some dev work for me, to interface with an industrial device using my raspberry pi. To...

I'm using AC86U with latest Merlin 386.3. I notice devices connected to the Guest Network have very choppy and unstable connection, specially wireless cameras. If I use the exact same ssid and password on the General Wireless section, everything works great.. why is that? I disable one of them...

Scenario - I have Guest Network 2 enabled for my IoT devices, with access intranet restricted. I've long had a couple of devices who would work great for a long time. I make some change to the configuration to the one of the IoT devices, device works fine for short time with the new...

ASUS RT-AC86U, Merlin 384.19, Guest network WPA-Auto-Personal / AES Bandwidth Limiter Yes, Setting 80Mbps down / 5Mbps up Access Intranet Disable (same settings for 2.4G & 5G) On QoS page, QoS Type Bandwidth Limiter shows enabled But logged into the guest network I see no limiting, still...

Last night I updated my RT-AC68P to ver 386.2_2 (from 384.18). Everything was working fine under the old firmware. After upgrading the router to the new firmware, I did a factory restore and reconfigured everything from scratch. Everything seems to work except for my Guest network SSIDs...

I only have one Asus router that support AiMeash so cannot test it out myself. I know Guest Network #1 syncs to all nodes but is it possible to enable Guest Network #2 on AiMesh node only? I do not care about it syncing to other nodes or main router as long as its isolated from main network and...

I am using Guest network 2 for all (untrusted ones) my IOT devices with Intranet access disabled. Today I just discovered that a laptop connected to this (Guest 2) network can access all intranet devices except for router itself. By access I mean ping and pull up web interface of devices...

Hi All, I want to use Time scheduling to ensure the kids' off-time during night. I also put my kids on the guest-network to protect the devices on my home-network from threads. So I bought the ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8) that allows both and even more. I found, that scheduling works on the...

Hi. I am trying to enable guest network for my IOT devices. I do not want to give them access to my intranet. If I enable a guest network and configure one of my devices to use that network, they can not access to internet. I only be able to make it work I give them access to intranet. When...

First post on here, been following for years and found most answers. Running 4b on AX88U and unable to route Guest Network 1 clients through the VPN. In OpenVPN, set to strict policy routing and set the entire guest network 1 subnet (since guest 1 gives an entirely new subnet) to route through...

Hi - first post in this forum :) I live in a 350m2/1150sq ft house over three floors. In the first floor we have a apartment that we are going to rent out, with included internet and TV. Also we're soon getting a new ISP. We're getting our first tenant soon, and would like to get a secure and...

We were talking about this in the RT-AC86U 386 firmware but saw people with RT-AC68U devices starting to have the same issue and wanted to pop it out into it's own thread. There is a new behavior with the 386 firmware that Guest Network 1 uses a different IP space from what you have defined on...

What it says - is there a log entry somewhere that will distinguish which wireless clients are connected to the guest network? Thanks.
