Cuando recibes a un invitado es posible que este te pregunte cuál es tu contraseña de WiFi. Tener una conexión a Internet segura es esencial; aunque tal vez no te moleste dar a tus invitados acceso a tu red WiFi, tienes otra posibilidad que permite mantener la seguridad y privacidad de tu red: una red para invitados.
You can create a guest WiFi network through your router's settings interface. Sigue estas instrucciones paso a paso para configurar una red WiFi para invitados:
1. Connect a device to your network over WiFi or using an Ethernet cable connected to your modem. This works best on a tablet or computer.
2. Abre un navegador Web y escribe http://192.168.0.1 en la barra de direcciones.
3. Sign in to the modem settings (GUI) using your Admin Username and Admin Password, printed on the sticker.
4. Select Wireless Setup in the main menu.
The next steps depend on whether or not you have a C4000 modem (pictured here).

1. Select SSID Setup in the left sidebar menu. Si tienes un un enrutador de dos frecuencias,deberás seleccionar 2.4 GHz o 5 GHz en el lado izquierdo según la banda en la que deseas configurar tu red para invitados.
2. Tu red principal debería aparecer primero en la lista desplegable de SSID. Choose SSID2 to set up a second network.
3. Select Enable to turn the network on. Depending on your model of router, you may also see “Broadcast” as an option – select this to make the network visible to guests.
4. Choose a customized and easily recognizable SSID name for the network. Consejo: no pueden incluirse espacios en el nombre de la red.
If your model has a step 5 and 6, these are optional if you wish to set a bandwidth limit or a redirect (for advanced users).
5. Select Apply to save your changes.
Del mismo modo que configuras una contraseña personalizada para tu red WiFi personal, también deberías crear una contraseña robusta y exclusiva para la red para invitados. This is the password you will share with visitors to let them use your WiFi. If you have a C4000 series gateway, you can do this in the "Guest Wireless Setup" screen.
Follow these steps to set your password on modems other than the C4000 series:
Did you know that if your guest's phone or computer were to be impacted by a virus or cyber attack while on your network, then it could put your own devices at risk? Al crear una segunda red WiFi segura (a guest WiFi network) provides a layer of protection for your home network by allowing guests to connect to the internet without impacting your personal network and devices.
You may want to consider using a separate (guest) network when connecting your smart home devices. If any of your smart home devices were to get hacked, the data available to the hacker would be limited to the devices on that particular network. Por lo tanto, la red para invitados podría proteger a los demás dispositivos, como laptops y smartphones, conectados a tu red WiFi principal.
