I wonder if these guest network features really do separation as well as
using several routers would? Does not having that Vlan tag mean that
whatever nasties are on a guests laptop easily find their way across the gap
and hit your stuff anyways? From what I have been reading lately, it is
better to put your little small devices like the cameras, thermostats, etc,
on the guest side in order to limit them practically to their own sandbox
and the Internet.

Subject: Re: Apple pulls Airport routers, possible refresh coming
Yeah, I’m with Tim here. There are of course competitors, but to me, speed
isn’t everything and you can more than make up for any potential
inflexibility in the router part of the AirPort by just using it as a pure
bridging access-point, at which it’s very good. The only thing I wish they’d
bring back is SNMP support, and I wish the “Guest Network” could use a VLAN
tag and not be limited just to a NAT setup. Those features are of course
“Enterprise”-grade, but I’m sure they aren’t too much to ask for a product
like this, seeing as how Apple were once targeting them at small businesses.
JMO, of course, YMMV, and all that.
