Blocking guest wireless access to 1 device only on network

Question

Hi, I have a ORBI RBK50 Router and 1 Satellite unit with latest firmware.
For Guest wireless access, I want to bloc access to my NAS, whilst keep access to other devices like a printer and various media streaming devices for my guests.
For Normal wireless access, I want to have unrestricted access to all devices on my network.
I had an older Netgear router years ago which I'm fairly certain offered this functionality, but I cant seem to create this on the RBK50. Does anyone know if this can be done?

Normally GN access to LAN side resources is blocked by default. I thought this was the case for the 50 series. I haven't had mine online in a while. There is no WEB UI option for blocking or unblocking GN access I believe, if you don't see anything on the WEB UI, it would be blocked by default.
Though I see that there maybe a check box here that allows GN access to LAN side sources:

Alas, not possible.&nbsp; The original Orbi product line, including the RBK50 package, does provide an option that can be enabled (or left disabled):

This is an "all or nothing" situation.&nbsp; There is no facility to block access to individual devices on the primary network.
&nbsp;
The AX product line does not allow devices on the Guest WiFi network to reach the primary network.
&nbsp;
To accomplish what you want is not a trivial undertaking.
