Nighthawk CAX80 - Guest Network Options
I'm looking at purchasing a new router and leaning towards the AX6000 WiFi Cable Modem Router (CAX80) I've contacted Netgear 3x so far and they can't seem to give me a straight answer, just keep quo...
Well possible that NG may close having guest devices access to each other. This has been a security risk over time and NG may close this. Not sure if or when that might happen. Guest Network works normally for internet access.
I have the exact same problem. I enabled all of the settings for the guest network and it will not broadcast the SSID. I called Netgear support and they told me I would have to buy a Netgear armor package in order for them to help me. They KNOW their nighthawk router/modem has problem with the guest network turning on and they want customers to pay for help. They put out a garbage product with issues and instead of fixing them they want customers to pay for their product to work even though the guest network should work out of the box. Unfetter greed and a lack of empathy for customers struggling with their terrible products. Netgear are a bunch of crooks putting out garbage products and demanding customers pay for support.
