Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I'm running a Deco M5 system in access point mode, but when I enable guest network (which is now an option), it gives access to my main network (which a guest network shouldn't). Is there any way to configure these units, or my Asus RT-N66U to only allow the guest network to access the web, not my internal network?

I have my Asus still running to support my internal gb network, as well as using it currently for guests, as well as my home automation

With the Deco running as a AP, your Asus controls where the packets are sent to on the network.

 

You could probably set the Deco back to router mode, which the Guest should now work as intended. As for the Asus, disable the Wi-Fi since the main Deco unit is wired to it.
