ATT Fiber Guest Network Setup

I've set up my network using ATT Smart Home Manager but I don't see any directions on how to set up a guest network.  Any help would be appreciated.  I have a BGW320-500 Gateway.

Let's help get your guest network enabled, @sirnewt!

 

To enable the guest network on your BGW320-500, follow these steps: 

  1. Take your web browser to http://192.168.1.254
  2. Click on the Home Network tab
  3. Click on the Wi-Fi tab (At this point you may be prompted to input the password found on the side of the gateway)
  4. Scroll down to Guest SSID
  5. Change Guest SSID Enable to On
  6. Change the Guest SSID and passphrase 
  7. Click Save

You can also invite guests to your network using the Smart Home Manager. Here's how to do that:

  1. Sign in to Smart Home Manager.
  2. Select My Wi-Fi.
  3. Choose Share Wi-Fi for the network you want to share with a guest.
  4. Choose your contact or message option to send the info.

Good to know: You can only text your Wi-Fi details from the Smart Home Manager app on your smartphone.

 

Please feel free to reach back out if you need help in the future. Thank you for contacting the AT&T Community Forums!

SSID FOR GUEST NETWORK ENABLED ON. I SCANNED TO JOIN SSID AND IT FAILED TO JOIN. I CHANGED THE PASSWORD YESTERDAY AND IT SHOWS THE CHANGED PASSWORD SO I'M NOT SURE WHAT ELSE TO DO IF IT WON'T LET ME JOIN THE GUEST. 

PLEASE ADVISE SINCE I NEED IT FOR GUESTS TO USE
