Or is it possible to dedicate the Ethernet port of one of my m5 units to the guest network? Or any other combination of clever? :)

Hi, the Ethernet devices all belong to the main network.
And it is not possible to dedicate the Ethernet port of one of the m5 units to the guest network.
Thank you very much.

There could be a solution to this challenge: wifi.

This is a Dutch information page about with supported wifi dongles for your nas, I'm pretty sure there's an English page too. There's one issue: the usb firmware for wifi dongles after dsm 6.2 is not updated anymore and it only works with some specific dongles. I already tried 3 dongles that were somewhere around my house, to no result. I'm thinking about buying a really cheap one that's on the supported list and hoping that it will work. Through the wifi you could connect to your isolated wifi guest network.

Model 2: D-LINK DWA-140 usb WiFi adapter
If I try this in the coming weeks I'll update this post
