Netgear Night Hawk R8000-vlan guest network

Hi,

 

I realize we might be trying to inappropriately use a home product here :-)

 

I've got a Night Hawk R8000 AC3200 Tri-band router that's running in access point mode.

 

I would like the guest network to use 802.1q tagged vlans.

 

The appropriate menu on the access point setup is grayed out: VLAN/IPTV setup.

 

Per this article here, it's the expected behavior: https://kb.netgear.com/26765/Disabled-Features-on-the-Router-when-set-to-AP-Mode

 

Is there any workaround for this?

 

  • Hi FlyboyData,

     

    This is correct. Most features of the router are disabled when set to AP mode.
