Guest WiFi using a QR code

Not sure I could enforce QoS priority on the wireguard traffic. Easier with a non-guest SSID. Is there a huge performance benefit if there's just one SSID running in my airspace?

Also, for the OP, sounds like it's time to put the kids on the guest network.

You can QoS tag by whitelisted mac addresses if it's just priority to known devices generally. At best your router may be able to slightly shape devices on the network (strategically dropped packets). QoS over the air doesn't really work as there's zero control of any devices tying up RF spectrum, and zero ability to defend against DoS attacks (E.G. neighbor trying to stream 4K over wifi).

I have considered that, for sure.
