This article will guide you to open an extra Wi-Fi for your guests. It will only provide an internet connection and separately from the main network. For example, when you connect to the guest network, the device cannot access the local network, unable to log into the web interface, etc.
Note: Guest Network doesn't available in Access Point Mode.
Step 1: Open a web browser and go to http://cudy.net or http://192.168.10.1.
For details, please refer to How to log into the web interface of Cudy Router?
Step 2: Go to Advanced Settings->Guest Network.
Step 3: Create a 2.4GHz or 5GHz guest network according to your needs.
The default guest network is an open Wi-Fi named 'Cudy-Guest-2.4G' or 'Cudy-Guest-5G'.
Step 4: Set Encryption to WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed Mode, then set an easy-to-remember password.
Step 5: 'Save & Apply' the settings. Now you can access your guest network using the SSID and password you set.
Don't enable Hidden Network unless you want to manually input this SSID for Wi-Fi access.

@Hi Victor,
Thank you for contacting Cudy support team. I have just tested in my office. Here is normal, the device from the guest network can’t access the server connected to the LAN port of the WR3600H. So I need some information to follow your issue. What do you mean the local network folders? Do the local network folders connect to the LAN port of WR3600H? Is there any other network devices? Such as a main router? If yes, please describe the network topology.
“Hello! Guest access does not work for me, I turn on everything according to your instructions, but users from the guest network go to local network folders. I have the latest firmware 2.3.0 DE in Cudy WR3600H”

Dear Customer，
Thank you for contacting Cudy support team.
The reason is about the software design. For now, we don’t have plan to add guest network for WR3000 when it’s working as access point. It is not a easy job.
“Why there is no option for guest network for WR3000 when it’s working as access point? If it will be implemented in the future?”

Dear Alex,
Thank you for contacting Cudy support team. Sorry to tell you that Cudy router doesbn’t support this function. We will provide your feedback to the product department for evaluation.
“Hi. Will it be possible for us to allow clients from guest wifi to use vpn as well? Currently the option is greyed when accessing the router from desktop.”
