   I think the rationale is that 'guest' additions to the network   
   especially in public places may legitimately access the network's   
   internet connection and any servers on it, but shouldn't be allowed to   
   'see' each other for security reasons.   
      
   I cant say that exists as a possibility on any wifi routers I ahve or   
   access pints, but I have seen it I think on some other peoles kit.   
      
   If I wanted that level of access here, I would configure a second LAN   
   attached to a different SSID and put it on an entirely different IP network
