Guest network pro

[jsn2233]

I'm looking to get one of these routers and would like to know what are the possibilities with VPN/DNS and guest networks. I currently use YazFi and am able to put multiple guest networks through different wireguard tunnels, is this possible with guest network pro? I understand the firmware for these routers are unable to use YazFi at this time.

Would I be able to use my Pihole on my LAN as DNS for these guest networks in combination with a VPN? I always use Merlin, so would this make things easier or more difficult? Are there any other limitations I should be aware of?

@jsn2233, if you haven't done so already, use the forum search feature to search for the many past discussions on the Guest Network Pro feature and how it works. (https://www.snbforums.com/search/1880148/?q=Guest+Network+Pro&o=relevance) YazFi is not supported on the 3006.102.x firmware. There are various past discussions showing how to setup Pi-Hole on Asus routers including how to setup DNS Director on the 3006.102.x firmware to route Guest Network Pro clients to Pi-Hole. For example see this link: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/guest-network-pro-pi-hole.94392/#post-977343

Edit to add: One can use YazDHCP to configure manual IP reservations for Guest Network Pro clients. See the YazDHCP GitHub page for more.

For certain YazFi options like one-way or two-way to guest one will likely have to use custom IPtables scripting to accomplish the same/similar under Guest Network Pro. There are a number of past discussions on IPTables and Guest Network Pro that can be found using the forum search feature.
