Hub 5 security with IoT devices
Hi, I had some issues with my camera doorbell after a new Hub 5. It was the smart WiFi and is resolved now but while researching this I found quite a lot of articles warning about IoT devices and how they can be unsecure etc. Now I only got 1 Ring doorbell and it's on my main network and after reading those articles it made me somewhat worried. So is it really recommended to separate any IoT from the main net. Would this be best done maybe with the guest network on the Hub. Is the guest network on the Hub 5 fully separated from the main network were guest has no access to any devices on the main net? Or is this all unnecessary and stick with the hubs out of box settings but just with a long password? Thanks.

Service disruption and updates.
Hub 5, 1 Gb service. Its usually very solid, but over last few days I have had a number of blips, where the service has dropped. I thought may be they doing some maintenance, and sure enough after one of the blips, checking the HUB showed its software had been upgraded to LG-RDK_11.10.2-2410.5 I presume it security, but anyone know whats in the update? At the same time.. I started to get a security warning on trying to connect to the hub 5 (on the IP 192.168.0.1)... saying the certificate is not issued by a trusted authority. Certificates are not something I expect to have to mess with... anyone else seeing this? are VM going to fix?
