As you may know if you've played around with recent Apple Airports
(Express at least) in bridge mode with "guest network" turned on, they

defensible behavior out of the box - that is to say they move the
"native" SSID as untagged, and the "guest" SSID tagged 802.1q VLAN
1003.

This behavior does not appear to be field-modifyable.

I do wish they had bufferbloat-fighting queue managment on the ISP
side, it is otherwise
pretty good hardware.

Do they also supply that vlan to the ethernet?

How is their ipv6 with comcast?

Didn't know about that trick.

I'm going to immediately enable vlan 1003 on the cisco switch that my
express is connected to.

We CAN make better hardware, ourselves, beat bufferbloat, and take
back control of the edge of the internet! If we work together, on
making it:
