Model: Deco W3600  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.5.1 Build 20210204 Rel. 51225

1) The ability to optionally define Source IP (or Range) for port forwarding

    This would allow for better security when opening the port.

2)The ability in the Static IP, Addess Reservation page to type the IP you want assigned as opposed to having to accept the exising IP.

   This would make it much easier to assign static IPs for certain things (for example all Desktops in the 192.168.0.20-30 range, Light switches in the 31-40 range etc.)

 The second one is probably more difficut programmatically as it would need to check if the typed IP already existed, but most third party firmware allows it, so I'm sure it can be done.

Just came across another request. Separate DNS servers for Main and Guest networks.

 

 The need here is if you use something like PiHole for your DNS servers and it's hardwired, it's on the Main network, that means it's not accessible by the Guest network, and therefor no internet.

 The current workaround is to set the secondary DNS to a public one (8.8.8.8), but that's not ideal.

 If there's a way to assign a hardwired device to "guest" that would work too. Not having the 591 vlan as a separate sub-net doesn't make how to do that obvious to me.

@RichT 

 

Thank you for the feature requests, those will be forwarded to the dev team for consideration.

 

Hardwired devices will be on the main network, and don't have a way to move them to the guest network.
