About the WiFi networks
The router provides four WiFi networks:
•
Main network: The main WiFi network of the router broadcasts simultaneously in
the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz radio bands. The router supports automatic
bandsteering between these three radio bands in the main WiFi network. The main
network is enabled by default. You cannot disable the main network, or broadcast
of the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz radio bands in the main network. You can change
the WiFi network name (SSID), security option, and password for the main network,
all of which are unique to the main network. However, if you change the following
settings for the main network, the changes apply to all WiFi networks on the router:
-
AX feature: By default, the AX feature is always enabled for the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz,
and 6 GHz radio bands. You can disable the AX feature for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
radio bands individually. The feature is always enabled for the 6 GHz radio band.
-
Channels: You can set fixed channels for the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz radio
bands individually.
•
6 GHz-only network: The optional, separate 6 GHz-only WiFi network (that is,
separate from the 6 GHz radio band in the main WiFi network) is disabled by default.
If you enable the 6 GHz-only network, it does not participate in automatic
bandsteering in the main WiFi network. You can change the WiFi network name
(SSID), security option, and password for the 6 GHz-only network, all of which are
unique to the 6 GHz-only network.
•
IoT network: The Internet of things (IoT) network is enabled by default so that you
can connect WiFi-enabled smart devices that can range from light bulbs to appliances.
If you do not need the IoT network, you can disable it. You can select the radio bands
for the IoT network and change the WiFi network name (SSID), security option, and
password, all of which are unique to the IoT network.
•
Guest network: The optional guest network is disabled by default, but you can
enable it so that guests and visitors can connect to your WiFi without compromising
the security of your other WiFi networks. You can change the WiFi network name
(SSID), security option, and password for the guest network, all of which are unique
to the guest network.
