Hardware Version: V20
Firmware Version: n:2.1.0 0.9.1 v005f.0 Build 170927 Rel.57074n

Hi

please advice here. 

I really love this router and all of its functionality.

 

i recently bought two access points and a switch, all from Ubiquiti. 

 

Now i I want to create a VLAN for my guest network so guest logged on this portal are on another subnet. I am told that I need a compatible router and the Archer C3150 is not setup for this. 

 

Is this true?

@Hrohibil 

 

The VLAN feature on the C3150 is to make the internet or the IPTV work only, and the router has one subnet only, there is no option to create a VLAN and different subnet for the guest network. 

 

Instead, you may need a business-level router and a suitable switch to achieve it. 

 

Besides, why do you want to create a separate subnet for the guest network? Do you want to block the access from the guest network to the host network? 

 

If so, you can disable " Allow guests to access my local network” on the guest network page.

Thank you Kevin. 

 

I allready have a suitable switch for this from Ubiquiti. 

 

I want to have different networks seperated from our heavy load devices and the kids. 

Guest would still be able to scan the nework for IPs, so i want to avoid that also

 

Which routers does TP has which supports this?

 

This C3150 router is more expensive then the Ubiquits Edge Router which has theese functionalities.
