Wireless > Guest Access
The Guest Access feature allows you to provide guests visiting your home with
Internet access via wireless . The guest network is a wireless network separate
from your local network . The Guest Access feature does not provide access to
the local network and its resources, so your guests will not have access to your
computers or personal data . For example, the guest computer cannot print to
a printer on the local network or copy files to a computer on the local network .
This helps minimize exposure of your local network .
