Isolating guest AP is mean of:
- Isolating between clients of guest AP
- Isolating between clients of guest AP and main AP.
Clients of guest AP has access to internet, to router host and to LAN hosts.

Is there a way to allow guest AP to only access internet? I thought thats what
a guest AP was for, to isolate them from other WLAN and LAN clients, not just
WLAN clients. Thats how other router's i've had work

Hi Andy,
You could make as an option:
- To allow only traffic to Internet or not. That would generate the respective
firewall rules on the LAN/WiFi.
- Choose a DHCP pool (like you have for VPN - VPN Clients IP Pool)
- Ability to choose DNS Server, like for example one server connected on the
LAN. That would generate the firewall rules to only allow UDP 53 port to that
IP Address.
I believe all this options would make a huge improvement on this GUEST option
that you've implemented.
Hope to hear news regarding this.
Thank you,
Goncalo
P.S.: Thank you for you last FW 006 update.

Thanks for the great firmware!
I agree with the requesters above. I would like to be able to prevent those
connecting via the guest AP from having access to my home network. That is the
way my Netgear router manages the guest network.
Anyone connecting to my guest network only needs access to internet, not the
internal network, printers, storage, etc.
Thanks

да, былоп неплохо, есип оно только в

I am also requesting this feature, since I see this thread has been along for
quite some time now without being implemented into the firmware. This should be
a standard action of a guest network. Allow internet only connection via the
guest SSID. Guests should not be able to access the main network. Thank you

This feature has been implemented partially with the latest version available
3.0.3.0-025. It works but as I have a DHCP server, I'm not using the router as
DHCP for the LAN, the GUESTS can't get an IP from my server. That's why I made
a request for the following:
- To allow only traffic to Internet or not. That would generate the respective
firewall rules on the LAN/WiFi - DONE
- Choose a DHCP pool (like you have for VPN - VPN Clients IP Pool)
- Ability to choose DNS Server, like for example one server connected on the
LAN. That would generate the firewall rules to only allow UDP 53 port to that
IP Address
Let's hope Padavan can implement this soon.
Great work Padavan, keep going!!!

I dont use the router DHCP so the guest function will not work for me. You
should add documentation that states that in order to use the guest ap and
isolation from the lan you need to use the router's dhcp server.
It would be great to be able to turn on the router dhcp just for the guest AP's
and assign another subnet for an added layer of security.
Thanks so much for your firmware!!

Agreed with the above, unless the DHCP Server service can be enabled for the
Guest AP clients it is unworkable at the moment for those of us who use a
separate DHCP server. I have no idea if this is possible though, given the
Guest AP is already outside the scope of the base firmware.
Keep up the good work!

I use a pair of N56U's as access points in my house with a separate
router/firewall. What would be really useful for me would be to put the guest
clients on a VLAN. This way I can have a separate DHCP pool for the guests and
filter the guest traffic based on VLAN ID.
Thx.

I am using the latest 3.0.3.1-27 firmware with AP isolation turned on. Although
clients on Guest AP cannot access LAN, they can still access all the services
on the router itself. i.e. the file shares, printers, telnet/ssh, even the
router admin login page! Isn't that a security hole?

Asus firmware has full guest network isolation, but this one isn't. Sorry no
free wifi for my neighborhoods. :-( Traffic shaping for guest network would be
great addition also.

maybe it's even better. what if they involve into child pornography and you
will have to pay for that? better keep your internet access for yourself.

My guest AP had a firewall with a WAN IP filter option so I used that to block
access to the other subnets. Not perfect but a non-standard username on the
admin console for the guest AP made it _secure enough_ for my needs.

Is this still not possible? If not, I might consider going back to Asus
firmware if that supports it. Another question that really does not belong here
is.
Can you do DHCP reservation based on mac-address?
Cheers!

It think this is possible now. There is a choice to isolate between the guest
AP and the LAN. I don't use this router with a guest AP, so have never tried
it.
