Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.2.14 Build 20241223 Rel. 16551

Hello,

 

I am looking to enable the Captive Portal option for my guest network, but I don't see the option. My network consists of a main XE75 Pro (Firmware: 1.2.14 Build 20241223 Rel. 16551), as well as 2 other XE75 Pro connected to it (Firmware: 1.2.14 Build 20241223 Rel. 16551), as well as an X50-PoE (Firmware: 1.4.9 Build 20250110 Rel. 65349), and a BE25 (Firmware: 1.0.17 Build 20250403 Rel 13304).

 

I only need the guest network on the XE75Pro units, so if it's because I have other units, is it possible to have those broadcast a different SSID or something like that? I'm using the X50 in the garage for some smart devices, and the BE25 to bring some Ethernet ports to my TV area.

 

Thanks,

Hi, thank you very much for your time and patience.

The current firmware of Deco XE75/75 Pro, as well as Deco BE25, doesn't support Captive Portal Option under the Guest network.(Deco X50-POE does)

I think you can try to enable the IOT network:

TP-Link IoT Network

 

Best regards.

  @David-TP Thank you for your reply. I'm confused as to how a "higher end" router is missing features that a lower end router supports? Why is there no clear article which specifies which router supports the feature? Will this feature come to the XE75 Pro?
