Hi guys,
I have ftd firewall managed via FMC, facing some problem with my guest wireless network.
The infrastructure is, we have some services published over internet for public access, on the ftd i have done some NATs and access policy configured. the Guest wireless network also terminates on the ftd.
All the published services are accesible internally( within my org network addresses) as well as from outside ( like mobile data and home wifi), however when i connect my laptop to my organisation Guest SSID and try to access the same published services it fails. the page doesnt open. Also i noticed is that when i do ping to my URL am seeing the internal natted IP instead of the public IP.
Same scenario i repeated in my home wifi, the services am able to access succesfully and am seeing the proper public ip address when i ping the URL.
Can anyone giude my where am goin wrong.

Guest Wireless User is user which can access some service and can not access other, this is depend on ACL under WLAN of guest, check it.

Thanks for the reply...
theres no ACL defined explicitly on WLAN.. but yes there are some services which works and some does not.

Still not resolved confused... also i found that when i connect to the guest network and try to download anything eg: firmware, its been too slow around 10kbps, wondering why... Secondly as soon as i connect to different network and do the same it works fine with considerable speed. Am new to ftd and fmc still learning to go around tabs.
any help would be appreciated

we start guest journey in wireless,
1-first the guest will select SSID,
the SSID "WLAN" as I mention have it ACL to permit or deny some service this can check via below name of ACL
and them from WLC security you can see what this ACL permit or deny.
2- SSID <-> VLAN we must know the VLAN ID for this SSID guest
this VLAN can help us to go to SW to check the QoS for port for this VLAN and see why the other VLAN have good internet connection and this VLAN have not.

Thanks MHM for your response.
I found out the issue after discussing with my collegue, the DNS mentioned in the DHCP pool is our ISPs DNS, due to which its blocking/not resolving the URLs in questions.
As soon as i update it with a public dns, all works fine as desired.
Secondly, the download speed also increases due to this change.
So will take appropriate steps of how fixing it permenently.
Thank you MHMCISCO for you insights.
