completely isolate it? Unplug it. 

Otherwise if you want any data to pass, they need to be able to communicate a little. 

Otherwise you'd need to upgrade to a business grade solutions with vlans to isolate devices/subnets.

    Thanks a lot for your answer.

    I can't unplugged it completely.

    Because the first one (192.168.1.xxx) give access to the web via WAN.

    Is it possible to configure a firewall in the RAX10 ?

      You could buy a seperate firewall that could do it. but not one in the RAX10. Its literally the most base model dual band AC mesh system netgear offered.

        OK ! Thanks !

        So sad :smileyfrustrated:, some websites noticed that this modele have a firwall. I baught it for that.

        So I have several choices :

        - Sending back the Netgear

        - Installing a Firewall like Pfsense, but I have to connect a server in my installation

        - Using an other OS in the Netgear like DD-WRT or OpenWRT, but for the moment the RAX10 is under garantee.

         

        The Netgear RAX10 is compatible VLAN, can block protocols and sites.

        Is it possible to dos something with that ?
