Blocking local network access from wireless is gone from SXK80?
Hi, I have used Orbi SBR60 for over a year and I noticed the wireless setting in it's wireless 2, 3 both have an option to select "Allow xxxx (employee, geust) to see each other and access my local n...
I assumed so, the VLAN with ability to isolate clients and VLANs from each other would achieve that. Except with my AP and pfsense (router) set up, whenever I enabled the VLAN profile, does matter it's the built in VLAN profile or newly created ones other than the "Default(1) profile", the wireless won't connect from my devices, iphone, Alexa etc.
I've made sure the VID is the same as the VID I created in pfsense. For the test, I only allowed one VLAN traffic going to the SXR80 AP. Also toyed around the "isolation checkbox for the client and VLAN". I also only tested the Wireless 2 with other wireless disabled.
It seems somewhere I've read the SXK80's VLAN should work with AP setup. So far I'm only testing with one SXR80 (in AP mode) and one SXS80 satellite, firmware in the latest 4.2.3.102
Previously I've set up three different mesh networks (2 Orbi RBK50, 1 Deco) with own APs/satellites for the 3 VLANS out of the pfsense. Kinda hope the SXK80 with VLAN could replace all 3 mesh networks. No luck so far.
I have a similar issue where if I enable VLAN (built in or custom added) I'm not able to connect to that wireless network. I've yet ot receive any response to getting that working.
