The residential Orbi products separate WiFi devices by SSID (primary, guest). All devices on the primary network (wired devices plus WiFi devices on the primary SSID) can communicate with each other and with the internet. WiFi devices on the guest SSID (there is no concept of wired guest devices) can communicate only with the internet - not with each other and not with the primary network.
This is probably not what you are looking for.
