Separate network access
How do I configure my RBE770 so I can use one of the ethernet ports to run a line to a rental unit I have in the backyard - and so that renters using that will have internet access but not be able to...
Is it a long term rental? If so, I'd recommend doing it right. Its a bit more expensive.
You'd want to get a business class router that can do vlan's. You'd set the house on on and the rental on the other.
then pickup a decent point to point system and go from the primary (business class) router to the rental with the point to point system (or just run an ethernet line).
then simply setup a different non-orbi access point in the rental. or just use the tplink and use it indoors.
You could pickup a used edge router x (older tech) for cheap that'd function as a business class router. Connect the point to point system (check amazon) for the guest, and then connect the orbi to it (but put the orbi in AP mode).
A bit of cost but would give you a solid connection for the rental if they're a long term rental.
