Set up a guest WiFi network with open access or password
authentication
A guest WiFi network is also referred to as a guest portal.
To set up a guest network with open access or password authentication:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display a login window but displays a security warning and
does not let you proceed, see Resolve a browser security warning on page 28.
3. Enter the admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select Wireless > Guest Portal.
The WiFi settings for guest access display on the page.
5. To enable the guest portal, select the Enable Guest Portal Network check box.
By default, the guest portal is disabled.
6. Leave the Enable SSID Broadcast check box selected.
Allowing the router to broadcast its WiFi network name (SSID) makes it easier to find
your network and connect to it. If you clear this check box, that creates a hidden
network.
7. To change the network name, type a new name in the Guest Portal Network Name
(SSID) field.
The name can be up to 32 characters long and it is case-sensitive. The default SSID
is the randomly generated SSID that is on the router's label, but appended with
-GUEST. If you change the name, make sure to write down the new name and keep
it in a safe place.
8. To change the VLAN profile, select the VLAN Profile check box, and select a VLAN
profile from the menu.
By default, the VLAN profile is set to Guest(40) for the guest WiFi network.
