New BE-98 Pro

[Lotta Cox]

I just setup a BE98 Pro. Stock updated firmware. The only issue was some, not all of iOT devices did not connect to 2.4.
I used guest network pro and created an iOT network called Idiots under the original SSID for 2.4. As soon as I did that all of the 2.4 iOT devices that did not connect previously connect, connected instantly. Is this the correct method? It's 100% stable now.

The only thing that did not connect is a RT AC 68U that is in Media Bridge mode. I don't see it in the Asus Discovery app anymore. Not in the client list either. Rebooted it, didn't help.
How can I get that 68U reconnected again?

I got the 68U to show up again.
Bit of a learning curve for the 98Pro.

The primary point in the IoT guest network is not for isolation, it's for compatibility. The default wireless settings for the IoT network are designed to be as widely compatible with cheap IoT wireless modules as possible.

Thanks Merlin! This router is amazing!

I get what you're saying, but doesn't it achieve the result of isolating those devices from your main network? That's the main reason I'm using the IoT Network on my BT10 's. I see a lot of complaints about the Asus Zen Wi-Fi routers, but this mesh unit has been solid.
