Guest Networks

Adding a guest network allows visitors at your home to use the Internet without using your
wireless security key. You can add a guest network to each wireless network: 2.4 GHz b/g/n
and 5.0 GHz a/n.

To set up a guest network:
1. From the BASIC Home screen, select Guest Network.
2. Configure the following settings:
Note: These settings display in separate sections of the screen to the 2.4
GHz b/g/n and 5 GHz a/n bands.
• Enable Guest Network. When this check box is selected, the guest network is
enabled, and guests can connect to your network using the SSID of this profile.
• Enable SSID Broadcast. If this check box is selected, the wireless access point
broadcasts its name (SSID) to all wireless stations. Stations with no SSID can adopt
the correct SSID for connections to this access point.
• Allow guest to access My Local Network. If this check box is selected, any user
who connects to the network with this SSID has access to your local network, not just
Internet access.
• Enable Wireless Isolation. If this check box is selected, wireless clients (computers
or wireless devices) that join the network can use the Internet, but cannot access
each other or access Ethernet devices on the network.
3. Give the guest network a name.
