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...

    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.

        I have a similar configuration (connected via cable) and it is working fine.  One difference I see that I am running latest firmware v3.2.16.6.  Also, I am running in router mode.
