I am unable to get DHCP to work on the guest network. Based on network diagnostics, it appears like the WPA2 handshake works fine. But then the device never receives a response to its DHCP request.

I have already tried restarting the main unit and restarting all the units simultaneously. The normal network appears to work perfectly fine. The routers are connected via ethernet backhaul via a switch.

I have tried this with multiple devices (Macbook, iPhone, Android Phone, Dell XPS 13 laptop) with the same result: it can connect to the normal network, but not the guest network

Could you provide a image of your network topology?
Please try to disable the encryption for the guest network, check if the clients can connect to it in this case.

The ethernet network topology is:
Verizon Fios Quantum Gateway -> Deco #1 -> TP Link Gigabit Ethernet Switch (TL-SG1005D)
Switch -> Deco #2 -> Internet TV
Switch -> Deco #3

I tried disabling encryption and clients are still unable to connect. They continue to be stuck on "Obtaining IP address"

Has this issue been resolved?

Please try to unplug the 2nd and 3rd Deco units, remain the main unit only.
Then make a test if the guest network is working normally.
