Set up a guest WiFi network and captive
portal
You can set up a guest WiFi network (guest portal), which allows visitors to access the
Internet using a dedicated SSID. You can also set up a captive portal for the guest portal.
With a captive portal, when visitors connect to the guest portal and open a browser to
access the Internet, they are redirected to a splash page where they must agree to the
Terms of Conditions before they can access Internet.
By default, visitors do not need to enter a password to connect to the guest portal and
data is not encrypted. Open access without security might be a good option for a coffee
shop. For situations in which authentication is required, you can use Facebook Wi-Fi or
set a password.
When using this network, visitors cannot see other devices that are connected to the
guest portal (or any other WiFi network on the router) and they cannot access the local
area network (LAN).
Set up a guest WiFi network with open access or password
authentication
A guest WiFi network is also referred to as a guest portal.
To set up a guest network:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window opens.
