Set Up a WiFi Guest Network
A guest network allows visitors at your home to use the Internet without using your WiFi
security key.
To set up a guest network:

Launch a web browser from a WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device that is
connected to the network.
2.
Type
http://routerlogin.net
or
http://192.168.0.1
.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is
admin
. The default password is
password
. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.

Select
Guest Network
.
5.
Select any of the following WiFi 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 WiFi modem router
broadcasts its name (SSID) to all WiFi stations. Stations with no SSID can adopt the
correct SSID for connections to this modem router.
•
Allow guest to see each other and access my local network
. If this check box is
selected, anyone who connects to this SSID can access to your local network, not just
the Internet.

The guest network name is case-sensitive and can be up to 32 characters. You then
manually configure the WiFi devices in your network to use the guest network name in
addition to the main SSID.
