How to create a network for guests on the TP-Link Wi-Fi ISP-customized router

Introduction

Guest Network provides secured Wi-Fi access for guests to share your home or office network. When you have visitors in your house, apartment, or workplace, you can enable the guest network for them. You can set different access options for Guest Network users, which is very effective in ensuring the security and privacy of your main network.

Requirement

If you want to modify guest network on your mobile phone, you may need to download Aginet APP from App Store, Google Play, or by scanning the QR code.

Configuration

Via web-based interface

Step 1. Log in to the router’s web-based interface via https://tplinkwifi.net.

You can also refer to How to log in to web management page of TP-Link Wireless Router for detailed instructions.

Step 2. Navigate to Advanced > Guest Network or Settings > Guest Network. Locate the Wireless section.

Step 3. Create a guest network as needed.

a. Tick the Enable Guest Network checkbox.

b. Customize the SSID. Don‘t select Hide SSID unless you want your guests to input the SSID for guest network access manually.

c. Set Security to WPA/WPA2 Personal, keep the default Version and Encryption values, and customize your own password.

Step 4. Click Save. Now your guests can access your guest network using the SSID and password you set!

To customize guest network options as needed.

Locate the Settings section.

• Allow guests to see each other: Tick this checkbox if you want to allow the wireless clients on your guest network to communicate with each other via methods such as network neighbors and Ping.

• Use the Following DNS Address: Tick this checkbox and fill out a DNS address if you want your guests to use a specific DNS address different from main network. This may help improve privacy and prevent clients on the guest network from visiting internal resources using the domain name.

Click Save. Now you can ensure network security and privacy!
