Orbi Pro 6 - IOT Client Isolation
Hello, I am looking the Orbi Pro 6 for a home use. It is the front runner for a new mesh network because of the 4 SSIDs (one being IoT). I have been looking at the manuals and I see that there ...
Yes, network discovery is verified. I use wireless 3 for my google home devices, set up through the google home app on my smartphone. With network isolation disabled and my iphone connected to wireless 3 I can see all the devices and set them up, and all the google home devices are found by and are controllable by the google home mini.
YMMV but with the google home devices on wireless 3 with client isolation disabled, you have network discovery.

Thanks for the reply Kurt, but maybe I should clairify my question and limit it to one point.
All of the following is related to Orbi Pro 6 Wireless 3/IoT SSID/Network. (or has one figured out a way to get an IoT friendly segment on another mesh network product?)
I am looking to add many types of IoT, media, automation, video on this SSID/Network and I am looking if it can be that those devices can talk to each other on that network.
For example:
-Cameras with NVR (camera send data over the internal network to the NVR/DVR)
-Sonos (unit with the HDMI input from the tv send data to other speakers for subwoofer/surround sound)
-IP remote or app control (control of the devices over the network, with all devices, even the mobile device with app on the Wireless 3/IoT SSID)
Can client isolation on Wireless 3/IoT SSID be disabled or is there a function "allow clients to talk to each other" on Wirelss 3/IoT?
Thanks again,
Frank
Frank,
On the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 system, all LAN2...LAN5 have individual VLAN profiles (eg. the default IoT LAN3/VLAN 40) where you can configure the Wireless Isolation (along with the in my opinion much to simple "Netgwork Isolation") for example.
