Hi @Michael_Albert
Thanks for the extra info. So the main bit is no, you don’t need to log onto each individual AP and give it its settings. One of the ideas behind cnMaestro is that you do the configuration there and it pushes that out to all the APs. Much like other controller-based Wi-Fi, you can put APs into groups and have different settings for some than others and all that kind of stuff.
That said, if you do actually want to have traffic from guest networks tagged and shunted into a different VLAN, then that VLAN or physical network segment has to actually exist beyond the APs or you’ll have other problems (as in exist in your switches, routers etc).
cnMaestro lets you setup a portal that gives guests access in various ways. These range from a simple “click to accept the terms” type thing, simple passwords, or they can be more complicated and involve user authentication, vouchers and payment etc.
If you can’t setup VLANs then this article may help:
Shout if you need more info.
