Extend Guest and IoT wifi to Easymesh nodes
Extend Guest and IoT wifi to Easymesh nodes
Pretty much as the picture describes. I have a BE3600 (archer BE230) in my office, where the fiber box is located, and I am using an AX72 Pro in my living room to create a mesh network in the whole house with a CAT6 creating the backhaul connetion between the two.
The main wifi mesh network is working flawlessly, as i am getting high speeds in all the house with quite seamless AP roaming, and both nodes are updated to the latest firmware.
The problem is that the guest network is not being "replicated" from the AX72 Pro in the living room, where i actually need it the most (I have NAS and other sensible equipment to which I would not like to give guests access, if possible).
I know for sure that it is not impossible to have a system like this to work, as I have just upgraded from a mercusys AX3000 mesh system that supported whole house mesh with both main and guest networks, while costing half of the combineation of BE3600 and AX72Pro

Hello,
Iot and guest over easymesh should be available on TP-Link routers!
I am content with the mesh in general (ax73 as master, two ax23, ax12 and mercusys mr70x as clients),
But I am missing iot and guest option!
And it is pretty long time from the demand on TP-Link forum!
Will we be pushed to OpenWRT mesh from TP-Link?

i would like to add my vote for this
i just bought and installed two be230 routers, because i wanted to setup one on AP mode and connect it tru the 2.5gb link. i gave mesh a test to find out how good it really was when i discovered most of my IoT devices disconnected. SADLY, all this time, i had a different SSID in the living room than the office (Where my modem and main router was) and i was hoping to have a dedicated IoT network (2.4 only) for them and the regular 5ghz for modern devices (video game consoles mostly) and the MLO just for our tablet and computers.
