I realized an easy way to share my wireless access.

How safe is this to do (with wireless isolation feature turned on)???

Sharing your wireless guest account


Very rough instructions to do it

Find out the IP address of your router.

Search for the user manual by model number or open up a cmd box and run ipconfig

The router address is usually give by Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

For my Netgear router I did this.

Go to the "Guest Network" configuration tab

Check box to Turn on Guest network

Check box to Enable Wireless Isolation

This allows the guest to connect to the internet but not to any other devices on your network

My router requires a password so I used this trick to give out the password..

Guest Wireless Network Name (SSID) : Name your Guest Network “Password is xxx “

where xxx is the password

Optional (this limits the shared bandwith to 55 Mbits)

WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]
