How to set Guest network to be same as LAN?

I just installed my Slate 7 for use as a gaming VR wifi router. I want to connect my PC and Quest 3 through this Slate 7 for maximum throughput, using Virtual Desktop. How can I configure my Guest WIFI network to have the same base IP values as the LAN port?

When I setup a guest network it has an IP of 192.168.9.abc while the PC wired into the LAN port is on 192.168.8.abc. Because these are different network Virtual Desktop inside the Quest 3 goggles cannot connect to the PC.

As a note, if I configure the primary 5G WIFI network and connect to this via the Q3, it works. Because they are on the same network. But I would rather leave this specific WIFI as an admin wifi, and use a Guest network.

Thanks

If the guest WiFi IP is changed to the primary network (i.e., from 192.168.9.x to 192.168.8.x), although Q3 can access the primary network in the "guest" network (thus available to access to the PC, now the guest WiFi actually is changed to the primary WiFi), and the "guest" network devices can also access the Admin Panel.

Recommended to connect Q3 directly to primary WiFi.

This makes sense, and is easy. Thanks.
