Need help with Omeda Controller and EAPs regarding isolation in guest network

2025-01-14 22:07:26 - last edited 2025-01-15 06:44:21

Hello everyone,

I have a laptop and an HP printer connected with Wifi in a guest network. The only problem is that they do not communicate with each other. Does anyone know where I can make the setting to allow the devices to communicate with each other?

If I deactivate the checkbox in the guest network, everything works fine but the guest network should remain.

Hi @Morpheuskdw21,

If all you have is the controller and and EAP, I think you just need to create a second wireless network wihout creating vlans (maybe). Set up a guest wlan with with the checkbox checked and the other as a non-guest wlan where it's unchecked. The printer and laptop would connect to the non-guest wlan and have no restrictions. Anyone connected to the guest wlan should have access to the internet (public IP addresses), but not your laptop or printer (private IP addresses).
