New Around Here
I'm running merlin 376.49_4 on a rt-ac68u.
1. I create a 2.4GHz guest network in first "slot" with intranet access enabled (not sure this matters)
2. I <remove> this network (intending to recreate with intranet access disabled)
3. I <enable> this network
ERROR: network reappears with original configuration (intranet access enabled). There is no way to edit a configuration once created. Workaround is to remove network in first slot and enable a new network in second slot. However, this workaround may only allow three "chances" to configure a guest network before having to clear router's removed guest networks.
 
"Enable" getting the old settings is a feature to allow turning off/on guest access with minimum bother.

If you notice, when you put the cursor over the Network Name (SSID) of the guest you just enabled, it will underline all the fields.
Click, and you should be happy <smile>

works for me...thanks

Clicking on the guest network SSID allows me to edit the network. Thanks for the tip.

@merlin, to make things more ergonomic and improve A11Y, suggest providing an additional <Edit> control alongside the existing <Remove> control.
