# Setting Up and Managing Your Guest Wi-Fi Network

How to find, share, and manage your guest Wi-Fi network to keep your main network secure.

Network & Wi-Fi

## Why Use a Guest Network?

A guest network keeps visitors' devices isolated from your primary network. This protects your smart home devices, security cameras, and personal computers from unauthorized access.

### How Your Guest Network Works

Most Smart Systems installations include a separate guest network that is:
- On a different subnet from your main network
- Unable to access your smart home devices, printers, or file shares
- Configured with its own password that you can share freely

### Finding Your Guest Network Password

1. Look for a network name that includes "Guest" (e.g., "SmithHome-Guest")
2. The password may be on a card provided during installation
3. If you have a UniFi system, the password can be found in the UniFi app under **Settings > Wi-Fi**

### Changing Your Guest Password

For security, we recommend changing your guest password periodically. Contact Smart Systems to update it, or if you have access to the UniFi controller:
1. Open the UniFi app or web portal
2. Navigate to **Settings > Wi-Fi**
3. Select your guest network
4. Update the password and save
 All currently connected guest devices will need to reconnect with the new password.
