  2. Deny customers visiting another SSID and wired users;
  3. Offer separate dhcp address pool for "guest" SSID;
  4. 4.Limit bandwidth for the customers who connect ‘guest’ SSID .

Components Used

UTT SOHO router AC650W; Firmware Version: nvAC650Wv1.8.0-150319;

Troubleshooting:

With the developing of 5GHz - new generation WiFi standard of 802.11ac, if you want to use 5GHz band wireless, you can use the same setting way as 2.4GHz to configure 5G SSID, enable 5G DHCP POOL and configure bandwidth
