Guest Wifi

[ijessicaec92]

Hi. 
Does anyone know if there are ways to turn on the guest wifi if it’s turned off? I am setting up guest wifi for kids to connect to because they were hot spotting from other devices to connect another device whom shouldn’t be.

It's done via the Google Home app: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/6327302?hl=en-AU

Sorry this doesn’t really answer my question.  If I have devices connected to guest wifi, and I set up a bedtime for the guest wifi to turn off from say 9pm - is there any way they could find a way around this? My stepson is studying IT so I’m sure he would find a way around this but I’m hoping not.   For example, I am unable to find the router settings to be able to turn on extra parental controls.  Is there any additional settings through my router that I can choose or does google home override everything? I have been unable to find the router parental controls.

Hi ijessicaec92,

Thanks for the response. All of the settings of your Google Wifi is under the Google Home app. As long as other users don't have access to your Google Home account, they won't be able to change the settings.

Thanks,

Edward
