Hi,Would appreciate some advice about what AP to get to help a friend set up a WiFi AP in a small medical practice.I would like to set up a secure WiFi LAN, but also a separate guest network that cannot access the LAN, due to inherent privacy concerns in this setting. I am most familiar with Apple Airport systems, but they cannot set up a guest network unless they are also handling DHCP and NAT, and in this setting I don't want to disrupt the existing ADSL modem/router that is already handling these tasks.So....what I was thinking was set up a usual Wifi network for the LAN, but hidden SSID, and need for MAC address authorisation for any device that could end up on the same LAN that holds patient records, but I also want to enable a guest network purely for internet access.Can anyone recommend a reliable AP that would do what I want, and once configured, just work happily by itself without further intervention? I was reading the instruction manuals for the Ubiquiti Unifi systems, but I was worried that they needed the controller software to be running on a connected PC all the time to work properly - maybe I read it wrong....thanks for any advice...Peter
