Give it an appropriate name ( wpa2-phones in my case). Goto Wireless -> Security Profiles and add a new profile. I generate one from and save it in my KeePass database. Create an Interfaceįirst thing to do is create yourself a passphrase for your AP. I’ll be using WinBox, but I’ll also list the console details via a print command. Phones rarely need full network access to other local devices.Īnd they have a nasty habit of getting lost, stolen or otherwise broken, so having a separate WiFi access point (and password) means you don’t accidentally disclose your main WiFi password. In this guide, I create a separate WiFi interface for phones and tablets. Mikrotik routers can do exactly the same thing, except you can have effectively unlimited access points and you need to build the network piece by piece.
You tick the “guest network” box and out pops a virtual guest access point. Many home routers have a “tick the box” style of guest WiFi network, So my friends use a guest network, the kids are on their own network, etc. I like to separate different WiFi on my network. Steps to create a second (or third) network on a Mikrotik router, perhaps for a guest network.
