The Orbi Pro features one option for Wireless 2 (Employee Access Wireless Network):
[ ] Allow employees to see each other and access my local network.
This is a giant issue. I, along with many other users posting here would like to use Wireless 2 for a seperate private network for employees that has internet access, but we all need them to see each other and SEE PRINTERS BUT NOT INTERACT WITH OR SEE WIRELESS 1. This is such a simple network isolation feature and just about every other router can do this.
Please, PLEASE add one more checkbox to this so I can choose:
[ ] Allow employees to see each other on the Wireless 2 network.
[ ] Allow employees to access my full local network.
That way if I check option 1 employee clients or special guests on Wireless 2 can see and interact with clients on Wireless 2, including printers and are still seperate from clients on Wireless 1.
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF CODING, ADD THIS FEATURE!!!
Other Threads mentioning this exact issue which has not been solved:
I would love to see this feature, currently no matter what I do, I can't set up a Sonos on the employee network, but it sets up fine on network 1. The only way it will setup on network 2 is if I reset the Sonos, and tick for the employee to see network 1.
This would need to be opened as a feature as this is currently not supported. I will discuss this with engineering to see if this is possible and will give an update once I have one.
Thank you for bumping this. Much appreacited! Been in development since April 2019. Now looking into development October 2019. Will check back in a year.
I did get a response from engineering on this request. This would technically not be do-able with the Orbi Pro. This is due to traffic over a backhaul connection and tagging between both networks which is not supported with this product line amd we do not have plans to implement this into the current Orbi Pro product line.
