Think of your home network like a party; not everyone needs access to the VIP room! With the BTC Broadband Wi-Fi App, you can set up custom networks, or different “party rooms,” to fit your family’s needs and get the most out of your devices. From prioritizing your work laptop to keeping 4K streaming from competing with guests' browsing, a custom setup makes your Wi-Fi work for you. You can also easily share your fast, secure internet connection with guests without the need to give out your main password!
To understand how to best organize your home network, let’s go over some of the reasons custom networks are useful:
In the App, there are three types of networks to choose from:
A Guest network allows your friends and family temporary or scheduled access to the internet.
A Work From Home network allows a limited number of devices that require high-priority access to the internet.
A Custom network allows for the most flexible configuration to best fit your internet access needs. With this option, you can choose which band to use, security type, and toggle prioritization and isolation as you see fit.
