When used in Acces Point mode, are the guest networks firewalled off from the private network?
236262
Yes (sort of). Depending on the exact model number (and there are a number of variations available in the marketplace) you can in fact create a guest network that will NOT allow "intranet" access or access to the main internal wired & wireless networks established. Asus has a listing of the models that come equiped with this feature. Mine has it.

I'm pretty sure that the guest network(s) is/are kept separate from your private network. If I remember correctly, the only thing that can be done from the guest networks is access the internet.

I will have to wait until Monday to talk to my network guy (who will definitely know the answer). I do remember having versioning issues with it that required us to find a non official image in order to work with our aps. I will ask Tim (CCNE) on Monday if that's not too late?

Access points work at layer 2 of the OSI model. Routers (And DHCP) are at layer 3. These access points have nothing to do with IP addresses [in simple terms]

This problem has been on my list, so I addressed it last night. I used two devices to achieve a solution which satisfies me--a TP-WR841ND running openWrt and one of these GL.iNets. I gave the WR841 a lan ip of x.x.2.99 so I could control it, and used dhcp on wireless to connect to my AP (as if connecting to a campground AP). I plugged the GL.iNet into the WR841 using the WAN socket with a wired ip of x.x.2.1, and set the wireless to be an AP (with, for instance, an SSID of "myRV" and a password). Then my laptop could connect wirelessly to "myRV" and access the internet. For security, I would use a VPN (such as StrongVPN) when connecting to any public AP.

Yes. You install their software on a pc or mac to configure the network/access points. You do not have to run the software continually in order to have it run, only to make configuration changes.

I was unable to access any of the data remotely on the device itself. I was, however, able to install it directly on my server and remote in with RDP and VNC protocols And still use the software. What the company calls their "tech support" was a joke, and said that you cannot have an active network security in place e.g. IDS/IPS or a firewall. Although I think their IT was simply trying to pass the issue over as my problem, I believe it was just faulty equipment or operating system both times. You should never have to insecure your network, especially when client information is critical. I would highly recommend Lanthem's line, as it simply works, is easy to configure, and can even be exported to booking software like QuickBooks. It is a little more pricy, but well worth the quality. Hope this helps.

The way that I have been dealing with this issue is to turn off the firewall, print the documents I need and then turn the firewall back on. It isnt what I prefer to do, but it seems to work for me. I could call the support line and look for another solution, but after spending so many hours with support I am not anxious to go that route again.

I had to set this up on our guest network which used a different security profile (WPA used instead of WPA2). This seemed to make it work, but I haven't tried to connect again on the WPA2 network.

It does have security options. It allows you to allow/deny access based on IP addresses and MAC addresses which may be of use in your situation.

Yes, just be sure to give them separate names, like "MyNet-East" and "MyNet-West". I have two of these and set them to static IP addresses in a range not assigned by my router's DHCP host so I can always get at them to check status, update firmware, and so on.

U can't add any dhcp options to the dhcp server for say vendor specific 242 avaya etc. Turn off autostart port as it gave me nothing but headaches.

If you mean Truly separate clients, then no, I doubt it since there is only one access list. You can however make a mock-up of that type of setup by making to separate logins between the 2, and limiting the access on the client side. I'm not sure why you'd want to though, since they will connect to the same network on the router. If I am understanding your question correctly. What the others are describing is a network, and an access point type of setup. NOT 2 distinctly separate networks. Just 2 different connection types that give you some combination of internet, and network access that you can custom filter to some extent.

I am assuming you want to protect the server with the firewall by putting it behind the firewall. If this is true then yes. You have to set up a DMZ and put the server on that network and then you can allow certain protocols to access it.

Got mine to work thru our corp firewall by using the direct connect function, specifying my IP address (as given to me by my ISP) & using port 8111 (Netmeeting). Good luck!

No but in most routers there is a setting for "wireless isolation". This would separate off all clients from each other.
1623628
No. This would not be possible without configuring a virtual lan to connect with the router to get the guest segment out to the internet. It seems like a great idea but when you go into AP mode you turn off the routing functionality and its ability to keep a guest network separate.

From my experience working with these units you can only have the access point in one mode. However you can link the Bullet to a switch and have a Nanostation M2 Rocket M2 on that switch, and p;ace it in the router mode to resolve you challenge.
