Model: Deco XE75  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.9

I have 3 XE75 units, operating in Access Point mode. I setup a guest network with the option "Allow local access" turned off. However, I can still access 192.168.1.1 (my ISP's router gateway) when connected to the Guest network. Shouldn't that network be isolated from the main network?

Hi, welcome to the community.

It is suggested to test one more device from the ISP router.

When Deco is in AP mode and you turn off "Allow local access", the guest devices are only able to access the network gateway which is an expected behavior.

The guest isolation in AP mode is implemented by access control,  not separated by VLANs, like in router mode.

Thank you very much and best regards.
