I've been wracling my brain trying to figure out the best say to set up guest wifi at my parents cafe, and it seems I've bitten off more than I thought I could chew here.
I've been looking around for routers to use in the dining area as an AP, which will broadcast a seperate ssid from the the network for business off the modem in the office.
The best option I've come across at a non-expensive price is the TP-Link ARCHER C50 V3 AC1200:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-ARCHER-C50-V3-Wireless/dp/B075PDLQ2Y
It includes its own guest network function with options to change the network easily from our phones (so if we wanted to change the daily password it wouldnt be too hard)
Im just concerned that this might not be able to support enough devices at the same time. I imagine that theyll be around a maximum of 20 devices connected at one time.
I know theres more expensive, safer options out there, but this is just an idea im experimenting with atm for my parents sake as they haven't the foggiest when it comes to tech.
Would love to hear some thoughts and suggestions! Thanks guys.
