What is a Guest Network?

personal information has been leaked online.

A guest network is a feature on modern WIFI routers that allows visitors to have internet access in your home if you don’t want to give them your primary WIFI password or have access to any devices on your network.

I have separate router and access point. I set up my guest WiFi with a 2nd SSID on the AP and used a VLAN to carry the guest traffic to my router over the same cable as my main WiFi. My router is pfSense running on a mini PC. I prefer this configuration, as it's more flexible. For example, I could have more than one AP. Also, most access points support Power over Ethernet (PoE) so that you don't need to have AC power handy, so you can position the AP for best coverage.

Your explanations are really clear, and I like the use of graphics and videos to make things easier to understand.

One other advantage of a guest network - they can be run at a lower (maybe obsolescent?) level of Wi-Fi security. As an example, my Eufy robot vacuum won't connect to my main network, but connects AOK to the guest network on my TP-Link access point.

Another thing to put up is time limits. Very important thing I wished you touched upon. For example, you can set the guest network to be active only when you want it to, like from 1pm to 7pm, Monday to Friday. So outside of those hours nobody can touch your net.
