Is there a way to limit the bandwidth for the guest network?
I have been searching and all I've found is the Qos which works fine..but I am looking into limiting the bandwidth on everyone connected to the guest wifi to a lower speed than the rest of the network.

I know I can limit each device individually.
Any ideas?
 
Yes, you can. Using Bandwidth Limiter, enter the interface name of the guest wifi in the target field (i.e. wl0.1 for the first 2.4GHz Guest network).

EDIT: Note that this only works for the guest wifi networks. You can't do the same for the primary wifi.
 
Does that mean that I won't be able to set Qos for the primary network?
right now I have it set as Traditional Qos.

I can't have two different Qos settings then, right?
It would either be for all or just for the guest network?
 
wl0.1 is not being accepted as a target... I get "wl0.1 is invalid."
