You should also encrypt the guest account to pre-
vent anyone in signal range from intruding into
your network and, for example, sharing your Inter-
net connection. The WPA/WPA2/WPA3 (WiFi
Protected Access) security standard is available for
this.
This method allows for individualised keys consi-
sting of letters and numbers with a length of up
to 63 characters. You can simply enter them via
the keyboard.
To do so, enter a corresponding number of cha-
racters into the Key field.

Using the QR code, you can conveniently set up the
connection to the guest network for mobile de-
vices. Scanning the QR code automatically trans-
fers the credentials for the guest network to the
respective mobile device. The QR code is visible
only if the guest network has been enabled.
