Setting up a Guest Network
Click Guest Network and then enter the network name and other options for the guest network. When you set up a guest network, a portion of your connection to the Internet is reserved for “guests”, wireless clients that can join the guest network and connect to the Internet without accessing your private network.
Select “Allow guest network clients to communicate with each other” to allow client computers to share files and services with each other while they’re connected to the guest network. Make sure sharing services are set up on the client computers.

You’re Using a DSL or Cable Modem
In most cases, you can implement this network design using AirPort Utility and following the onscreen instructions to set up your wireless device and network. You need to use AirPort Utility to manually set up your device only if you want to set up or adjust optional advanced settings.
