Guest Wi-Fi: why you shouldn't share your company network.

The Enter.Mix teamOctober 20263 min read

Giving a visitor your company Wi-Fi password seems harmless. But anyone on the same network can often see the other devices connected to it.

The risk

Your company network holds computers, printers, file servers and sometimes cameras. A visitor's infected phone or laptop sits right next to all of them. And a password shared once ends up circulating for years.

The solution: a network just for guests

  • Isolated from the internal network: guests only get internet access.
  • With client isolation, so guests' devices cannot see each other.
  • With a speed limit, so visitors don't take over your team's connection.
  • With its own password, which can change often without affecting anyone in the company.

And inside the company?

The same principle applies to teams. Separating, for example, the legal network from the administrative one limits the impact of any incident. With professional access points, every network is managed from a single dashboard.
