How to set up guest access to your network
For ALL
You can use your router’s guest access feature to provide your guests with
access to the Internet, while restricting their access to other resources on
your local network. The guest network is shown as an open, unsecure wireless
network that your guests can easily connect to. To prevent unauthorized users
from using your Internet access, your guest network requires that a password
be entered for Internet access. The guest network is enabled by default.
