You  can  use  your  router’s  guest  access  feature  to  provide  your  guests  with 
access to  the Internet, while restricting their access to other resources on 
your local network. The guest network is shown as an open, unsecure wireless 
network that your guests can easily connect to. To prevent unauthorized users 
from using your Internet access, your guest network requires that a password 
be entered for Internet access. The guest network is enabled by default.
