6. Specify the following settings:
• Encryption mode: From the Encryption Mode menu, select the enterprise
mode:
-
WPA2 [AES]: WPA2 provides a secure connection but some older WiFi devices
do not detect WPA2 and support only WPA. If your network includes such
older devices, select WPA [TKIP] + WPA2 [AES] security.
-
WPA [TKIP] +WPA2 [AES]: This type of security enables WiFi devices that
support either WPA or WPA2 to join the router's WiFi network. This is the
default mode.
• RADIUS server IP Address: Enter the IPv4 address of the RADIUS server to which
the WiFi network can connect.
• RADIUS server Port: Enter the number of the port on the router that is used to
access the RADIUS server for authentication. The default port number is 1812.
• RADIUS server Shared Secret: Enter the shared secret (RADIUS password) that
is used between the router and the RADIUS server during authentication of a
WiFi user.

Set up a guest WiFi network

A guest network allows visitors to use the Internet without using your WiFi security
password or with a different WiFi password. By default, the guest WiFi network is
disabled. You can enable and configure the guest WiFi network for each WiFi band.
The router simultaneously supports the 2.4 GHz band for 802.11n, 802.11g, and 802.11b
devices and the 5 GHz band for 802.11ac, 802.11n, and 802.11a devices.
The WiFi mode of the guest WiFi network depends on the WiFi mode of the main WiFi
network. For example, if you configure the WiFi mode for the main WiFi network as Up
to 54 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band, the guest WiFi network also functions in the Up to 54
Mbps mode in the 2.4 GHz band. The channel also depends on the channel selection
of the main WiFi network.
The router provides two default guest networks with the following names (SSIDs):
• 2.4 GHz guest WiFi network SSID. NETGEAR_Guest
• 5 GHz guest WiFi network SSID. NETGEAR-5G_Guest
