Reply To: How to put a hard wired device on to same network as guest wifi Hi, does anyone know how to go about putting a wired device onto guest Wi-Fi network? guest Wi-Fi is different in range to main network and Wi-Fi so I doubt…

Hi all,

thanks, basically all my iot devices are on guest Wi-Fi. I am considering getting a raspberry pi and using home assistant on it to be able to manage them all from 1 screen/app as at present I have several apps to manage/control them as different makes. I’ve read raspberry pi has Wi-Fi but it is recommended to hard wire it.

my hp switch has no wireless abilities but can do Volans, trunks etc so hence why I thought setup 1 port as vlan for guest Wi-Fi and just assign static ip. But seems that won’t work so seems only was is another router/ap setup for guest Wi-Fi and hard hire into that router/ap I presume?

will check out link thanks
