How to change the Wi-Fi name and password and create a guest Wi-Fi login portal

The Bell Business Wi-Fi app lets you create three separate Wi-Fi SSID zones to add an extra layer of protection for your sensitive devices. Each SSID zone can have a unique password so you don’t have to give private information to guests.

Secure zone

• Access level: Connect to Internet and access other devices in this zone over the local network. Devices are inaccessible from the other zones by default.
• Meant for: devices that require the most protection, such as point-of-sale (POS) devices, security cameras, IoT devices, network servers or any other business infrastructure that requires controlled access. All Ethernet-connected devices are automatically placed into this zone.

Employee zone

• Access level: Connect to Internet and access other devices in this zone over the local network. Devices are inaccessible from the other zones by default.
• Meant for: employee devices (phones, laptops) and shared devices such as printers and smart speakers.
• Each employee can have their own profile with assigned devices and customizable local network access.

Guest zone

• Access level: Connect to Internet only; no local network access. This protects sensitive information on devices in the Secure and Employee zones.
• Meant for: devices belonging to your customers, visitors and clients.
• Your guests will use a custom login portal when connecting to the guest SSID. The guest portal can be customized with your company name, logo, and terms and conditions to provide a branded experience. Multiple login options are available for the guest portal so you are not required to set up a password.

The three SSID zones will be automatically created when you log in to the Bell Business Wi-Fi app for the first time.
