@Cubelodyte 

Myself as well.  This turned out to be a huge waste of time.  I'm packing up my AX1500, AC1750, and extenders to return all of it.  

I had planned to set up an access point to only allow a PC (wired) and Oculus Quest VR headset (wireless) so they communicate directly for virtual desktop streaming. 

Problem 1: TP-Link disables whitelisting on Access point mode, which means I have to HIDE the SSID to disable encryption (which still isn't ideal). 

Problem 2: With this setup (encryption off) - I *MUST* be able to ensure nobody else is connecting to the access point.  This isn't possible.  If someone else does find the SSID and connect, I'd never know. 

I will never buy another TP-Link product after seeing this blown off as a non-issue.

This is ridiculous. I'm not waiting any longer either. AX3000 and a bunch of AX1500's going in the garbage.

@alien-link 

 

I returned my TP-Link AX11000 and bought an equivalent Asus GT-AX11000 and couldn't be happier.  

 

I eventually ran into stability problems with the AX11000 where devices kept getting disconnected and my whole family was complaining.  After switch to Asus, I get rock solid internet and there are no glitches with missing wifi clients, software is updated, many more comprehensive features, mesh, etc. 

 

Would recommend you look around for an alternative, you will be happier.
