Hi rtist2g,
Welcome to the community! :)
I'd need the Pro version vs the home version because I need to create a few different SSIDs for the seperate business units that are in the studio, however I do not want to isolate the networks for the simplicity of playing music to sonos speakers, or airplay to Apple TV's etc.
There is no option to create a different SSID other than the 3 default SSIDs, namely: Admin WiFi network, Employee WiFi network and Guest network.
I see that AP isolation is a *feature* but i don't see if there is an option to turn it off. Can you please clarify that I can turn AP isolation OFF?
I'm afraid to inform you that there is no option to turn off AP isolation.
Regards,
DaneA

Hi DaneA, thanks for the reply.
In looking at the most recent firmware release notes, it states:
Added the “Allow employees to see each other and access my local network” feature on Wireless 2 network
Doesn’t this allow the employee network access items like sonos speakers etc?
