Nest WiFI Pro - Do bands get split up when using Guest Network?

[EWTLTD]

When i turn on a guest network, do both networks use all the same bands or does the Guest Network use a specific band?

Thanks!

Hello @EWTLTD 

The guest network supports all three bands (2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz) on the Nest WiFi Pro, just like the main network.

That is what u thought too,  however cannot play my AirPlay 2 speakers on guest network, they have to be on main. 

I separated IOT devices to main and use guest for personal devices only because I can use all iot devices on guest network. 

any Insights?

That's not a band separation issue. More likely it's that the guest network may be isolating clients from each other and from devices on the main network. I like putting some IoT devices on my guest network, too, but anything that requires dynamic discovery or streaming will work better on the main network.

[EWTLTD]

Correct. All my IOT is on main and all personal will stay on Guest. 

drawback: guest network 1/3 slower than main network.
