The Guest Access feature allows you to create a separate WiFi for your guests without allowing them to access your main network and the computers connected to it. 

The Linksys Dual-Band WiFi Router’s Guest Network is only for the 2.4 GHz band.

Follow the steps below to enable Guest Access to the Linksys Dual-Band WiFi Router:

 

1. Log in to the Linksys Dual-Band WiFi Router's web interface.

2. Click the Configuration tab.

3. Click Wi-Fi.

4. Click Guest Access.
 

5. Check the box beside Allow Guest Access.
 

6. Click the Change button. 

7. On the Change Guest Password pop-up form, create a new guest network password and click Change.
 

8. Select your desired Total Guest Allowed from the drop-down options.

9. Click Save.


By default, the Guest Network Name is the same as your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi name followed by –guest, which can be changed on the Basic Wireless Settings page.

Your guests can now connect to your Guest Network to access the internet.
