RBR750 guest Wi-Fi

Something to check with EnGenius and the Mfr of the switch about.

I can get main Wi-Fi service in building 2 but cannot get guest Wi-Fi in building 2.

Any Ideas for programming or equipment for this without breaking the bank?

To be precise, this network extension has connected the primary network of the Orbi system to building 2.  Whatever credentials have been assigned to the access points WiFi (SSID/password), they are part of the primary network and will be assigned network addresses (IPs) by the Orbi DHCP server.

It has probably obvious that installing one or more RBS750 satellites in the remote building "solves the problem", but is fairly costly.

Is the goal:

• For this remote building to be entirely separate from the primary network.  This is fairly easy.  Insert any brand of router between the EnGenius bridge and the remote building access points.  The router will use Network Address Translation (NAT) to make every device in the remote building invisible to the primary network.
• For this remote building to have some devices which are part of the primary network and also have devices which are segregated from the primary network.  (Whether you choose to use the same WiFi credentials for these devices as for the Orbi Guest WiFi network is up to you.  No matter what credentials the remote building has, the criterion is that they cannot interact with the primary network.)  The TP-Link EAP650 is a pretty sophisticated access point.  I would start with this guide:

You could contact tp-link to see if they're AP's support a guest network. Since those are the devices in building 2. Maybe their forums know more about their devices.
