What are all those different type of connection types?

I swear this is driving me nuts.

In the web UI, when checking connected devices, I often see

  • 2.4GHz Wireless
  • Customized 2.4GHz
  • 2.4Ghz Guest Wireless

Now the first is the main 2.4, cool. I also can gather that the second one is the one I enabled by creating a separate 2.4 for my old IoT devices. So far so good.

But why on earth am I seeing devices connected to a "guest wireless" type, when there is absolutely no guest wifi enabled anywhere in the options ? Those on it seems to be gated not to be able to communicate with the main network, and I can't seem to be able to figure out what I can do to get it out of that supposedly non existent guest network.

Any help to clarify this would be great. It's an MR60 if that matters.

EDIT: Could that "2.4GHz Guest Wireless" be devices connecting to a satellite ? Sounds weird but, that's the only thing that comes to mind that could be it.
