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...
Unless I'm completely off and lost access to reality, the SXK80 systems are fully VLAN aware, the odd predefined network profiles with these odd "Allow xxxx (employee, guest) to see each other and access my local network" no longer exists - in favor of a true VLAN capable system.
I use one satellite and pfsense with a netgear managed switch. The switch is configured as such.
Port1, Port2, Port3 each connected to one of pfsense LANs
and Port10 connected the SXR80 uplink port.
SXR80 is in AP mode, created two new VLAN, 20 and 30.
All 3 wireless in SXK80 are set up to use:
Wireless 1 uses Deault (1) profile
Wireless 2 uses VLan VID 20 (all open, no isolation)
Wireless 3 uses VLan VID 30 (all block, isolation).
Guest wireless is not enabled.
All wireless WIFI connects fine and recieved IP in each VLAN range, but satellite turns pink. Also I can't access the SXK80 admin page by plugging my laptop to port 4, though laptop gets VID30 IP fine.
Connected laptop on wireless, still no access to the admin page.
Now when I connect the SXR80 uplink to port 5 (VID30), then laptop can access the admin page and the satellite turn blue, but only Wireless 1 can be connected, neither Wireless 2 (VID20) or Wireless 3 (VID30) can be connected.
The SXK80 with one satellite were initially setup without VLAN and only connected on port 5 with VID30 LAN, so the IP addresses of the SXR80 and the satellite are both from the VID30 LAN.
