How to setup a guest network
What is a guest network?
A guest network is a function where the wireless router creates an aditional wireless network
that only gives access to the internet.
Devices (computer, tablet etc.) that connect to the guest network will not have access to any
local resources that are connected to router by cable or the ordinary wireless network.
As an option you can limit the troughput speed of the guest network.
(You can select between 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50Mbps or unlimited)
