III-4-3. Guest Network

You can use an additional “guest” wireless network so guest users can enjoy Wi-Fi connectivity without accessing your primary network. The guest network can also be used as a parental control function, allowing you to moderate your child’s Internet access.

The guest network is separate from your extender’s primary network.

	and can prevent brute force attacks on clients’
	usernames and passwords.

	extender’s frequency band:
	2.4GHz (b+g+n): Allows 802.11b, 802.11g, and
