X55 Pro Guest Network not working when wired
X55 Pro Guest Network not working when wired
Just picked up a set of Deco X55 Pros to replace my 2nd gen eeros. Install went great, immediate discovery via the app, etc.
Wired setup is modem > main X55 > unmanaged Luxul switch > two satellite X55s and a bunch of wired stuff through the house
Main network works flawlessly, but I can only connect to the guest network via the main X55. Moving to an area covered by a satellite node results in the wifi connection dropping. Attempting to connect near a satellite fails. Wired clients off the satellites are fine, and the guest network works as expected when you are close enough to the main X55 that it's connection takes over.
When I unplug the satellites from ethernet/switch, they (as expected) fall over to wireless backhaul after a couple minutes, and then the guest network works perfectly all over the house, connecting to and handing off between any of the three nodes with no issues. Plug the wired back haul back in and everything fails to connect again.
Any ideas? Our main use of the guest network is for when friends/family come to visit and I'd rather not have to remember to unplug my satellite units every time someone stops by.

@peeple I have the same network configuration: Main Deco unit connected to Satellite units via an un-managed switch. After enabling the guest network, I could connect to it when I was near the main unit. Guest network did not work with the satellite units. I switched off the modem and the Deco main unit and restarted them. Now the guest network was working with satellite units. Please try restarting the modem and Deco units and test.
