RS700S Firmware Version 1.0.10.8 IoT Option Missing

So looking at the change logs for the RS700 you added a new feature,

 

  • Added an IoT network function in the web user interface."

But no matter where I look, I cannot find this option anywhere. Is it because smart connect is disabled?

 

I updated manually over 1.0.9.16.

 

 

  • IoT is under Advanced > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings. Then you’ll see a tab for IoT Network.

  • Sadly, based on my preliminary testing, the IoT function is kind of worthless.  It doesn't appear to create a dedicated network for IoT devices that CANNOT access my main network.  It assigns IP addresses from the main network and after testing it from a computer, I can completely access all my network resources from it.  Isn't the point to be isolated from the main network much like the guest network can be?

  • Finally found it, thanks. Strange place to put it. Surely under the wireless setup page as a new tab or just added to the list of other wireless options on that page would make more sense.

  • IoT is under Advanced > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings. Then you’ll see a tab for IoT Network.

    Not seen under Basic tab/Wireless settings anywhere or maybe under Advanced tab/Advanced Wireless settings area?
