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.

@Dear Nick,
Sorry, doesn’t support this feature now. We have provided your feedback to our Product Manager for evaluating.
“I have the WR1500 with firmware 2.3.10-20251215-170019. The guest network does not go through the vpn. All the rest of the network uses it normally. Is there a way to have the guest use the vpn as well?
Thank you!”

@Dear Luis,
Sorry, for now Cudy routers don’t support this function. We will forward it to our Product manager.

@Dear Adamx,
You can try to disable the “SPI Firewall” function on “Advanced Settings” —“Firewall” page. Then, you can access the devices that connect to the Guest Network. The devices connected to the Guest Network will be in a seperate subnet and you can access.
