Where is traffic separation for the Guest network?
Set up the AX 6000 to replace a 4 unit Orbi Pro system with only minor hiccups. One of the main reasons I used the pro was the ability, VS the regular orbi at the time, to separate the three networks....

You used the word should, and I agree it SHOULD be isolated but the previous generations of Orbis have what I would consider an abusrd security flaw in that they don't actually keep ALL of the packets seperated. They also don't even use the different subnets. You'll find some other long threads about this topic.
OTOH the new Orbi's use a different subnet, that unfortunately is not configurable (yet?), and as far my basic testing went are actually isolating all traffic between the two networks.
great if that is the case. My Tesla connects on the new network without the reboot cycles but won't download anything so I was surmising it was a network bleed issue.
