Trying "Smart Connect" on the R8000

The R8000 has several guest networks, which I like very much.

However, it looks like enabling the "Smart Connect" feature disables using the Guest Networks.
Does anyone know if there is a way around this? I'd like to try smart connect but still have at least 1 guest network available.

Thanks

    Should see Guest Network on the routers web page after enabling Smart Connect. One SSID for the main wifi network and if Guest Network is enabled, you can configure this SSID for Guest Network.
