Consumer Reports shares network settings to protect your devices

It’s something we’ve all done: share our home WiFi with a contractor, babysitter, or family friends. But you may be sharing more than you think. Consumer Reports shares a quick way to protect your digital privacy and security using a simple tool you may already have. Consumer Reports says a little-known feature on most routers offers a quick fix. One easy way people can protect their network is to set up a guest WiFi network like the one in your doctor’s office or local coffee shop. It gives your guests access to the internet, not all the devices on your network.
