Is this what home routers do if you configure the Guest Network option?
I see the checkboxes:
. Enable Guest Network ☐
. Enable Wireless Isolation ☐
. Enable SSID Broadcast ☑
. Allow guests to access My Local Network ☐
on my Netgear router screens.
Or would the guests still be able to see each other (but not the
non-guest users like me)?
Cheers,
