and is more secure than WPA2. If all devices on your network support WPA3, we
recommend that you use this type of security.
• WPA2-Personal [AES] + WPA3-Personal. This type of security enables WiFi
devices that support either WPA2 or WPA3 to join the router's WiFi network.
However, WPA2-Personal [AES], which is the same as WPA2-PSK [AES], is less
secure than WPA3-Personal. If your network includes devices that support
WPA2-Personal [AES] but might not support WPA3, select WPA2-Personal [AES]
+ WPA3-Personal.

Set up a guest WiFi network

A guest WiFi 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 802.11ax, 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 three default guest WiFi networks with the following names (SSIDs):
• 2.4 GHz guest WiFi network SSID. NETGEAR-Guest
• 5 GHz guest WiFi network SSID. NETGEAR-5G-Guest
By default, these networks are configured as open networks without security but are
disabled. You can enable one or both networks. You can also change the SSIDs for
these networks.
To set up a guest WiFi network:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
