How To Configure Your Guest Network - Linksys WRT 1900AC User Manual

HOW TO CONFIGURE YOUR GUEST NETWORK

You can use your router's guest network to provide your guests with access
to the Internet, while restricting their access to other resources on your local
network. To prevent unauthorized users from using your Internet access, your
guest network requires that a password be entered for Internet access. The
guest network is enabled by default.
Your wireless network's guest network and password were set when you ran the
router's setup software, but you can change them at any time.
To set up guest access to your network:
Log into Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See ""How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi" on
page 7.)
Under Apps, click Guest Access. Your guest network, which was set up during
your router installation, is displayed.
To turn guest access on or off, toggle the Allow guest access switch.
The guest network name is based on your 2.4 GHz network name and is
automatically generated.
To change the guest network password, click in the box next to Guest network
password, then type the new password.
