I'd like to setup a second subnet on the modem to allow my cafe customers to connect
is this possible?
Hi @stephenmillard . I don't know how a second subnet might work.
You could try setting up a "guest" network. There are instructions in the manual for the Archer VR2100 (not VR1600). The guest network can be restricted to just one of the bands, would use security as normal, have a simple wifi password, no access to other guests or your local network, would be subject to QoS-low priority.
Enabling QoS might affect your down and up speeds on your main network. Test before and after.
Reduce DHCP lease time, maybe to 1 hour, and even increase the size of the dynamic pool. Depends on how many customers you get and how long they stay.
Hi David
Thats sounds like it might work, thanks for the speedy reply I'll give it a go
