Guest Network
Adding a wireless guest network allows visitors at your home to use the Internet without
seeing your passphrase. You can also specify the degree of access that you give to visitors.
To set up a guest network:
1. Select Basic > Guest Network.
2. The Guest Network Settings screen displays:
3. Select or clear any of the following optional wireless settings:
• Enable Guest Network. If this check box is selected, the guest network is enabled,
and guests can connect to your network using the SSID of this profile. By default, this
check box is cleared.
• Enable SSID Broadcast. If this check box is selected, the router broadcasts its SSID
to all wireless devices. By default, this check box is selected.
• Allow guest to access My Local Network. If this check box is selected, any user
who connects to this SSID has access to your local network, not just Internet access.
By default, this check box is selected.
• Enable Wireless Isolation. If this check box is selected, wireless devices that join
the network can use the Internet, but cannot access each other or access Ethernet
devices on the network. By default, this check box is cleared.
4. Give the guest network a name (SSID).
The guest network name is case-sensitive and can be up to 32 characters. The default
guest SSID is NETGEAR_Guest.
This SSID is in addition to the regular SSID that you set
up on the Wireless Settings screen (see Wireless Settings Screen Fields on page 29).
