How to configure Guest Zone within the Dlink Exo AC2600 Mu-MIMO Wi-Fi router?
Guest Network is a temporary network which is primarily created for visitors who visits your home frequently. This type of network is separate from the main network and is allowed to be configured from either of the frequency bands. The network gives the benefit to users to allow the other users to access the internet and at the same time denying them from accessing the private files and documents within the network.
