Nighthawk X6 R8000 Guest Network Setup

Does anyone know what the "Allow guests to see each other and access my local network" check box cannot be un-checked as it is greyed off. 

 

I need to un-checked it so that guest users can only gain access to internet connection and not see the internal network. It's supposed to be a feature but cannot be used.

  • I can't think of any reason it being grayed out. The only solution I can provide is to do a factory reset and enter settings manually. Something seems to disable it but I do not have enough information to say what

      Already done a reset, still greyed off. Everything else works fine. Just don't know why this feature is somehow disabled and greyed off.
