RBK53 Guest Network No Internet and missing checkboxes
Fellow Gearheads, I'd like to see if anyone has run into this issue. I just replaced my RBR50 and RBS50 system with the RBK53. In place are the RBR850 and the RBS850. Upon deployment, I upgraded both...

I am having the same issue, but I am now using the RBR850 in Router mode. I had the exact same problem when I had the RBR850 configured in AP mode. However, the Guest network appears to work fine when I'm conncted to the RBR850. But when connected to one of the Satellites, the Guest network appears, but shows "No Internet Connection."
I believe this problem is a result of having a switch in between the Router and Satellites (using wired backhaul), but have not confirmed...

I just checked my system and enabled Guest Network. Mines in AP mode behind a R7800 router with it's radios disabled. RBS are wirelessly connected to the RBR. My iphone and adroid pad connect to both RBR and RBS and get internet when connected to the Guest Network. WPA2 and AES only. I did try one D-Link DWA-192 connected with WPA3 enabled and it worked. I only have 2 devices that support WPA3 currently.
There are known problems with v10.11 FW and RBS wire connected to the RBR using a LAN switch. v10.11 breaks this configuration.You can ask Christian_R for access to the beta forum and give v3.2.10.1 a try. This works for AP mode if I remember right.

I have the same issue, and I have no switch between the RBR and RBS just a cat5e direct to each other.I have asked for access to beta-firmware, will confirm if this fixes it.

Dear all
Is there any news on this subject ?
I have this issue with the latest firmware.
With a lan cable between Main and Satellite there is no internet on devices connected to the guest network.
Without cable it is working fine.
Thanks

Is your system in router or AP mode? Mines in router mode and I have three devices connected to the guest network and there getting internet thru the RBS that are wired for me. I haven't tried AP mode yet.
