Guest Wifi Network Setup & Why you NEED to Use Them!

Guest wifi networks are standard on almost any router or modem. They are a way to isolate temporary wireless devices whom still require internet access from your main network where all of your personal devices may be connected too. Today we cover how to setup a guest wifi network and show you why it is a good idea to be using them!

I almost never comment on YouTube instructional videos, but this one is exceptional. Very, very clear!

You have a wonderful way of explaining things. You're so clear and everything is orderly and easy to connect and follow. And you do a really nice job of showing the steps taken and what we should be looking for. I know things are hard to show, they can be blurry sometimes, but you do a really nice job. Thank you.

2 years old, but I just came across another video that linked here. I like the idea putting cameras on a guest wifi, but is there a way to allow access to a local NVR yet provide security? I have several PoE cameras for outside monitoring as well as App controlled cameras. After installing, while a remote chance my concern is now my PoE outside cameras provide a link directly to my local network.
If you have a video link that describes how to secure those let me know. For now may be setting up another router just for camera/NVR access with limited connection.

Great video. My question is can guest network prevents users from accessing internet as well?

[nickythomson]

If the guest visits frequently will they automatically connect to the guest wifi.. if I want a once off connection would I need to reset the guest network setting ?

Fyi. Does not hurt to change your router’s IP addr. Bad actors know that the first ip addr is typically the first ip addr in the subnet. Imo

Question, so I have an ASUS router, and they have a dedicated tab for 'Guest Network' however in a separate tab called 'Wireless' I can also add multiple 2.4GHz networks. In this case, is it essentially doing the same thing? Or does the guest network have different properties such as the firewall you mentioned that would not be present in the 2.4Ghz netowork if I created another one via the 'Wireless' tab?

does resetting to factory setting for a computer do the same thing in terms of getting rid of malware/ rootkit as updating to the newest OS?

Hey, how you doing? I have a question I was trying to use guest network on my device for my little nephew, and it will not allow me too. It will keep giving me a message of capture, Apple. So I cannot put a password because of the message any tips on trying to get get rid the Message. OK, thanks best wishes for the New Year's...

Do Guest networks need to have a password? I was told they didn't because they're "separate"

[sgaac]

would performance increase in my main network if i disable a guest network?
