I've been setting up a Linksys AC1200 to replace an old WRT54G, and I'm unable to get internet access on the VAP. I've followed the instructions located here to get it set up. I'm posting via the primary wireless SSID now, so no problems there. I can connect to the VAP but there's no internet connection.
If I had to guess, it may be the firewall that is blocking access. Are any hosts on the VAP able to even get an IP address? As a test, you could try temporarily disabling the firewall under Security tab, firewall sub tab, then disable SPI Firewall. Again, just do this for quick testing as it will open everything up! I have a guest SSID working on a separate network, but did use a more extensive IP Tables ruleset to lock down everything between the guest network, private network, and the LAN. This is all on a WRT1200. If it turns out to be firewall related, I can try to assist with some rules that will allow traffic flow.
It's now working fine as a guest VAP, but I'd like to isolate the VAP IP addresses 10.0.1.x from the primary IP addresses 10.0.0.x, and from each other, I suppose.
