Change IP Guest Wifi
Hello, I want to change the IP range of my guest Wifi, since 192.168.2.1, which is the default one, is a LAN that I am already using and I have the problem that it has LAN access when it should not ...
I don't believe GN is configurable on its IP address range since the intent of the GN is for limited and temporary use by devices that only need internet access for a short period of time.
When the Orbi is in AP mode, doesn't the pfSense box assign IPs to every device that connects, including the Orbi units themselves and everything that connects to the Orbi (no matter what WiFi SSID they use)?
That is what happens with the main Wi-Fi, the PFSense assigns the IPs by DHCP or fixed, but in this subnet of the guest Wi-Fi 192.168.2.x it does not pay attention... also, it does not even go through the firewall... That's why I want to change that configuration via telnet but what I put above looks like it was for previous versions.
To be honest, the guest network shouldn't even work in AP mode.
Probably a bug that its enabling at all.
