Anyone doing dynamic VLANs on wifi?

Reasonable Home Network Setup?
people, quit downvoting OP. they are obviously beginner and are eager to learn. that's a good thing. on consumer hardware, enabling a "guest network" will, in reality, set up a separate VLAN in the backend of the system- hidden away from the user. the reason why it's only available via wifi on consu

Welke internetprovider geeft mij de beste wifi-dekking in huis?
Ik had dat probleem jaren geleden in mijn vroegere huis. Een setje van drie TPLink Deco M5 mesh routertjes loste dat op.

Mesh Network for Large house thick walls
Upside of living in an old farmhouse: I love those buildings. If it has been there for 100 years, it will probably be there for 100 more (with maintenance, of course)Downside of living in an old farmhouse: Oftentimes the walls are lath & plaster. That stuff EATS wireless signals. It gets even worse
