How the guest wlan isolation has been implemented in AP mode in deco M9 latest firmware for v1 hardware?

Does it have VLAN id and what is it? Why it cannot be set from user interface?

How? I don't see any VLAN id. I can only select Isolation form main network? I router mode it can be done but question was AP mode.

@tt75 i found my guest vlan. did it by browsing to the web interface of the main router and download the 'debug' syslog. search for vlan. in my case, my guest vlan id is 591

@p0s1x correct. But the guest network isn't tagged when using in AP-mode crying

In this price range I would expect VLAN tagging could be used for guest networks (in AP mode as well). Let's hope they will update the firmware to tag the guest network with 591.Although, it is in the logs, but it doesn't work (checked with wireshark):

Sat Jul 25 11:54:26 2020 user.info root: guest-eth AP role, eth0 eth1 set tag port, vlan id is 591

TP-Link:  We really do need to the ability to assign VLAN ID tags to the SSIDs and pass them to the upstream switch(es)/router(s) when the DECO(s) are in AP Mode. Currently, when the DECOs are in AP mode, all traffic egressing the Ethernet port(s) is untagged and it is impossible to determine what traffic is associated with which SSID. These are not inexpensive APs; they should be able to do this. Please provide this capability in an update... Soon.

I own a set of X60s and am equally frustrated by the fact that we can't use VLAN tagging of the guest network when the devices are in AP mode.

@TP-Link_Deco we need this!

@JLNL 

Hi, When Deco is on the access point mode, there is no need to set up VLAN tag on the switch to allow satellite Deco's guest devices to work properly;

The guest network and main network is not separated by VLAN ID on access point mode;

And When you choose ‘select Isolation form main network’ for the guest network under access point mode, the guest devices could only access the gateway;

 

So may I know why you need the VLAN tagging of the guest network?

Thank you very much.

@TP-Link 

 

You can not be serious? Most of the switches are using VLAN tagging for separating networks. But seems that TP-Links are not meant to be used in such networks. Maybe target audience is just simple home network but why you have then even implemented such poor quality quest network? Clearly device cannot be used in any advanced

level networks and better use some other company products.
