Wireless Hotspot Device Exeption

Hello,

 

I have set up Sophos UTM  9.411-3. I have connected it to a TP-Link Access point and have set up an Internal wireless network & Guest Hotspot network. Both work fine and the hotspot webpage works when users connect to the guest network.

 

However i have some devices (games consoles, mobile phones etc) which i want to be connected to the network all the time but not on the internal network. How would i do this?

 

Many Thanks

    I think you haven't gotten an answer because it's not clear exactly what you're asking...

    "i have some devices (games consoles, mobile phones etc) which i want to be connected to the network all the time but not on the internal network."

    By that do you mean that you want those devices to be able to connect via WiFi to the Internet?  Are any (like the game consoles) connected via Ethernet cable to your internal network?  Can you add another Ethernet NIC to your device running UTM?

    "Internal wireless network & Guest Hotspot network."

    By that, do you mean that the TP-Link AP has the capability of two (and only two) separate WiFi SSIDs/networks and that you have bridged your Internal network with the Internal wireless network?  How does the TP-Link separate the traffic - using VLANs?  If so, what VLAN tags are you using?

    Cheers - Bob
