Guest Network
A guest network allows visitors to use the Internet without using your WiFi security key. By
default, the guest WiFi network is disabled. You can enable and configure the guest WiFi
network for each WiFi band: 2.4 GHz b/g/n and 5.0 GHz a/n/ac.
Set Up and Enable a Guest Network

54 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band, the guest WiFi network also functions in the Up to 54 Mbps
mode in the 2.4 GHz band. For information about configuring the WiFi mode, see Manage
the Basic WiFi Settings and WiFi Security of the Main Network on page 91.
