Desactived MAC acces control for WIFI Guest
Firmware version 1.0.2.46 Hi, I want to stop the acces control on mac adress for the guest. I just want control the mac address for the internal network, but not for the wifi guest ? How can I do ...

Salut Arno,
As far as I know the Netgear router (any older R6xxxx, Nighthawk, Orbi/Obi Pro for routers and APs) MAC Access Control system does not make a difference between the normal and the guest SSID. C'est un "design" très limité, n'offrant pas de flexibilité à mon avis.
NaderA, AbhayB and johngm (for Orbi Pro) - this is an absolute valid use case: Trusted LAN and WLAN SSID for trusted MAC only, guest network for any MAC address - advise please.

Will have to wait for another round of FW research/design/debug and implementation from Netgear. It might take a while.
En attendant, s'il vous plait profiter ce que vous avez, mes amis....
Just to clarify: I'm not Netgear, I don't promise anything.
