Guest Network

The Guest Network page allows you to configure a guest network. A guest network is a
small section of an organization's computer network designed for use by temporary
visitors. This guest network often provides full Internet connectivity, but it also strictly
limits access to any internal (intranet) Web sites or files.
Traditionally, you needed to use different APs to configure different Basic Service Sets
(BSSs). Your Cable Modem/Router supports Multiple SSIDs which allows you to use the
same access point to provide several BSSs simultaneously. You can then assign
various privileges to different SSIDs and associated networks.

Up to five BSSs are allowed on one Cable Modem/Router simultaneously, one for
Admin access and four for Guest Networks.

If you are using WEP, you must use different WEP keys for different BSSs.

You should use different PSKs for different BSSs if you are using WPA/WPA2.
To access the Guest Network page:
1
Click Wireless in the menu bar.
2
Then click the Guest Network submenu.
Figure 36 shows an example of the menu and Table 25 describes the items you can
select.
Click to generate 4 WEP keys automatically.

Enter a name to identify this Cable Modem/Router in WPS
network.
PIN (Personal Identification Number) is the WDS ID
number of your PC or game machine. When a
WPS-supported device tries to connect to this Cable
Modem/Router, you have to enter its PIN into the WPS
Setup AP's PIN field, then click Configure.
Select WPS mode to be deployed.
In Push-Button mode, then user only needs to push the
WPS button on the Cable Modem/Router. Then, within 2
minutes, activate WPS on your client device(s).
For devices that require a PIN, enter the PIN in the WPS
Add Client PIN's field, and then click Add.
