Seperate DNS for guest network
Tp-Link allows you to create an isolated guest network which is great however it lacks some basic functionality.
I would like to be able to give devices connecting to my guest network access to a seperate DNS. I host my own DNS locally which myt router is set to use. Whenever a device connects to my network my router gives them the ip address of the local DNS server for all their DNS queries. The issue with this is obvious, if a device connects to my guest network it is unable to reach my locally hosted DNS and therefore unable to resolve DNS queries.
Being able to add a second DNS for the guest netowrk would solve this issue.

We really need a separate dns for the quest network !
I have family quests every now and then.
My neighbour is running AirPnP.
Another neighbour has a two family house.
A friend of mine has a small car repair shop and he lives in the same building.
I have my own html servers in my home network
I am using Pi-hole to get rid of the ads. If there is a secondary dns server written to the router, Kookle and Microshot are using that and the ads are again flooding in.
The only way we have found is to buy anothet routers.
I have managed to share my laserprinter by connecting it to my home network with ethernet cable and to quest network by HP JetDirect

@anoncontainer Today I had guests and soon discovered they couldn't connect to the Internet because of this issue.
I run my own DNS server but because I don't give my guest network access to my main network they can't get name resolution.
So I would like this feature too.
