R8000 Guest Network Needs Separated Wireless Isolation and Local Network Access
Guest Network now combined the 2 functions "Wireless Isolation" and "Local Network Access" as a single option. In the old days, they are separate options. My Chromecast does NOT work on Guest Net...
Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who was a bit baffled by this. I have also just bought myself an R7800 and was having fun setting everything up when I realised that I can't have my Chromecast on my guest network without revealing everything else. Seems a bit ridiculous and contrary to the point of a guest network.
Come on NETGEAR, sort this mess out already.
