Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.4.1 Build 20240722 Rel. 60491

 

I have 3 XE75, and one each of X50-PoE and X50-Outdoor.

The DECO network is running in AP mode with the Main XE-75 connected downstream of a wired router.

 

After an year, I finally enabled the iot network and moved all my smart devices to it.

I was surprised to find despite the name, the iot Network fully communicates with the main network unlike the "Guest" network, which is isolated from the Main with a toggle setting.

 

I suppose I have 2 options:

1) Move all iot devices to the "Guest" network and keep the local access toggle off for the guest network.

2) Leave iots in the iot network and Implement device isolation on per-device basis to the clients in the iot network.

 

For option 2, the problem is, I do not have the "Security tab" in the app main page shown in screenshots. I only have "Network" and "More" tabs. I explored all options, but do not see the device isolation features on either Main or iot network clients.

 

Q1)  How do I get the "Security" tab? My android app version is 3.9.109

Q2) I do not see any operational difference between option and option 2. Am I wrong?

Because your running your decos in AP mode you lose out on a bunch of options including "Device Isolation" that's why you are unable to find this option.

 

Here is a list of what options you have in router mode vs which options you lose in AP mode

If you can reconfigure your set up to use your deco in router mode then you would be able to use "Device Isolation"

 

Best bet might be to switch everything over to the guest network  

Need help with the Deco app, setup, Ethernet backhaul, network switch or rolling back firmware? Router or AP mode? https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/forum/topic/699816?page=1

Hi, for the Guest network vs Device Isolation vs IOT network, you can also refer to 

Guest Network vs IoT Network vs Device Isolation

Best regards.
