Change the Name field to "Guest_Security" to make it easier to remember and
1
identify.
Select WPA-PSK in the Security Mode field. WPA-PSK provides strong security

that is supported by most wireless clients. Even though your Guest_SSID clients
do not have access to sensitive information on the network, you should not leave
the network without security. An attacker could still cause damage to the network
or intercept unsecured communications.
Enter the PSK you want to use in your network in the Pre Shared Key field. In

this example, the PSK is "ThisismyGuestWPApre-sharedkey".
Click Apply. The Wireless > Security screen displays. Ensure that the Profile

Name for entry 3 displays "Guest_Security" and that the Security Mode is
WPA-PSK.
