Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.0.1 Build 20220902 Rel. 58645

Hi, I have a router (Mikrotik) and 3 decox50 wifi points, and they are in bridge mode. 
my question to you.
1. can you @tplink in bridge mode add a static ip function.
2. can you @tplink add a vlan function in bridge mode, because then we can separate the guest wifi with another dhcp network controlled from our own router.

@WifiNederland Hi, welcome to the community.

It is suggested to set up an address reservation on the main router for Deco when Deco is in AP mode.

As for the guest Wi-Fi of Deco, when it is in AP mode, the guest network is no longer separated from the main network via VLAN tags. The engineer might need to change the working mechanism of Access Point mode first before adding the support of VLAN settings. But it might take quite a long time. If you just bought Deco X50, maybe you could consider replacing it with our Business Access Points like EAP:

It would be a better choice for the Multi-VLANs network and it supports EAP Mesh as well, such as EAP650 which is also AX3000.

Thank you very much.

Best regards.
