How to create a separate secure account sharing the same wi-fi

I would like to create a separate, secure login sharing the same wi-fi account. Is this possible? Most routers these days have features for both a “secure” network, plus a “guest” network.

Hello @JMarkFisher, we understand your concerns about having a separate account using your same Wi-Fi.

 

We suggest that you set up a guest network account.

 

Here are a few different ways to set up Guest Wi-Fi:

login to the AT&T Wi-Fi Manager from a device connected to the AT&T Unite Express Wi-Fi network. Click Wi-Fi. Click Option.

Click the Enable Guest Wi-Fi checkbox to activate a guest network.

 

 

Or you can try these steps: Set up Guest Wi-Fi
  1. Open the Google Home app .
  2. Tap Favorites Wifi. under “Guest network,” tap Set up.
  3. Turn on Guest network.
  4. Enter a network name and password for your guests to use. ...
  5. Under “Shared devices,” select any devices you would like your guests to be able to use.
  6. Tap Save.

Let us know how this works out for you.
