Set Up a Guest Network

Adding a guest network allows visitors at your home to use the Internet without giving them

your wireless security key.

 To set up a guest network:

1. Select BASIC > Guest Network.

The Guest Network Settings page displays:

2. Select the wireless network to configure.

3. Give the guest network a name.

The guest network name is case-sensitive and can be up to 32 characters. You then

manually configure the wireless devices in your network to use the guest network name

in addition to the main SSID.

4. Select any of the following wireless settings:

Enable this wireless Network. When this check box is selected, the guest network is

enabled, and guests can connect to your network using the SSID of this profile.

Enable SSID Broadcast. If this check box is selected, the wireless access point

broadcasts its name (SSID) to all wireless stations. Stations with no SSID can adopt the

correct SSID for connections to this access point.

Allow guest to access My Local Network. If this check box is selected, anyone who

connects to this SSID has access to your local network, not just Internet access.

Enable Wireless Isolation. If this check box is selected, wireless computers or devices

that join the network can use the Internet but cannot access each other or access

Ethernet devices on the network.

5. Select a security option from the list.

The security options are described in Security Options Settings on page 32.

6. Click Apply.

Your settings are saved.
