No guest network in AP mode for WR841N
No guest network in AP mode for WR841N

Model: TL-WR841N  
Hardware Version: V13
Firmware Version:

I use two WR841N Wifi Routers. One of Hardware Version V13 and one with Hardware Version V14.

I can set up a Guest Network with V14 in AP Mode => fine!

With hardware version V13 a Guest Network can be set up in Router Mode but not in AP mode => Problem!

 

Can this be fixed?

Is a firmware upddate planed for V13?

Can I enable the guest network any other way (like telnet, ssh or something)?

There are hardware and software difference on the v13 and v14, so if you cannot enable the Guest Network when the router is switched to AP mode on v13, then it doesn't support that.

@Kevin_Z Thank you for your replay. But Guest network is working in "Wireless Router Mode"! It is just not available in the administration page once I switch to "Access Point Mode". Therefore the hardware supports it, its just not configurable it seams.
