Set Up a Guest Network

Adding a guest network allows visitors at your home to use the Internet without using your wireless security key. You can set up to three guest networks, all of which can be active at a same time. However, if all three guest networks are active, only one is displayed on the Router Status screen (see View Router Status on page 82). By default, none of the guest networks are enabled.

To set up a guest network:

1. Select BASIC > Guest Network.

2.In the Network Profiles table, select the radio button to the left of the profile that you want to set up.

3.Select any of the following wireless settings:

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, anyone who connects to this SSID has access to your local network, not just Internet access.

Enable Wireless Isolation. If this check box is selected, wireless computers or devices that join the network can use the Internet but cannot access each other or access Ethernet devices on the network.
