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,
not to cover Tp-Link that is not listening us,
try to think in the other way;
Make two easymesh networks, one for home network, the other for iot devices on 2.5gHz and guest on 5 gHz.
Main routers for both meshes to be connected with wan to ISP lan,
and both networks are separated with different IP arrays.
Still valuable solution...
Regards, Zeljko

A must have function and it needs to be made much clearer in the literature that it currently is not available.
I should have read this before I bought these routers!! @Spawn_e_git

Dear tp-link,
We are in front a typical case of Misleading Advertising, simply it's not possible that you put in the specifications of the product box "Security: Guest Network and IoT" and 2 lines after "EasyMesh Compatible" and then we found out they can't work together:
I bought 2 x BE230 + AX55 Pro to upgrade my network and I want to use all the features that I paid for. I can't accept other way.
Please re visit your marketing decisions and make this features available. Thanks.

@emachestnut I also need this. TP LINK should al least consider it IMO.
