[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1926847, member: 38864"] Guest networks aren't usually isolated in that manner. Some routers let you give the 5 Ghz band a separate SSID (the old Apple AirPorts could, for example), but guest networks are something else entirely. Enabling the Guest network option forces anything connected to it to be 100% isolated from anything else, even on the Guest network itself. But this doesn't mean limited to 2.4 GHz on one network, 5GHz on the other. I suggest reconsidering how you have all this set up. If you can tell us what router you have, we can look over the options. [/QUOTE]
