Guest Network Isolation

Guest Network Isolation

Network Segregation May Be Just Theater

• Guest Network matters.
• Never give your local network credentials (password) to guests. 
• Guest Network must be true isolation,
  not just a 2nd network name (SSID).
• Without isolation:
• The very real threat is credential sharing (which often happens casually).
• Guest network can give the world access to all your networked devices.
• That can facilitate identity theft, accidental or deliberate.
• ASUS gets this right:
• Guests cannot access your local networked devices.
• Guests cannot see each other.
• Guests cannot cross sub-networks.
• If your router does not enforce that, then it does not have a real guest network.
