AX88U Pro unable to connect to any guest networks

[diyguy]

Hi All-

I just setup an AX88U Pro and am struggling with guest networks. I cannot connect to any guest networks, whether they broadcast or not even with the QR code scanning. I did recently add a 3004.xxx AX88u as an AImesh node, but I am not attaching these guest networks to that node, I only need my guest network on my main "PRO" router. No matter what I do I can't connect to the guest networks. Is this related to the incompatibility of 3006/3004 in the same AIMesh with guest networks, even though I dont need to attach those networks to the older 3004 device? I have tried single bands , dual bands etc. , rebooting etc, cannot connect to them at all.

What firmware is the RT-AX88U Pro running? If using 3006.x firmware, what are your Guest Network Pro profile configuration(s)?

When you first setup the RT-AX88U Pro, before you connected any AiMesh nodes, did you setup Guest Network Pro profiles and if so, could you connect clients to Guest Network Pro profiles?

Do the Guest Network Pro profile wireless SSID's even show up on the WiFI client?
What specific WiFi clients are having the problem?
If the Guest Network Pro profile is configured for WPA3, try reducing it to WPA2 instead.
Screen shots of your settings (with sensitive information redacted) may be helpful for others in diagnosing your issue(s).

As a last resort, perform a hard factory reset on the RT-AX88U Pro followed by a basic manual configuration. Do not import any saved router.cfg file, do not connect an AiMesh Node. Do a basic setup then enable Guest Network Pro profile(s) and see if WiFi clients can connect to those Guest Network Pro profile(s).
