Welcome to the community! :)
As I have checked the attached image, it seems you need to implement VLANs in order to separate your home/office network from guests. The GS108PE supports VLAN however we need a router that also supports VLAN. Does your AT&T BGW210 router supports VLANs?

Thank you. I actually have Guests setup through the At&T router. Seem to be working well.
As I didn’t get any responses when I originally posted this, I spent some time through the forum and made some changes. I have the sound bars and any low data equipment using WiFi and the higher bandwidth electronics such as TVs hardwired through the Netgear Switches. I also decided to go with adding a Nighthawk X4 used in Repeater mode. I installed it in the farthest part of the house near the living room, master bedroom and patio area and it seems to have fixed all my issues.
