welcome to the community.

You could go to Deco APP>More>Wi-Fi and there is an on/off switch for guest network.

Best regards.

  @nolamannc  That would seem to turn off the guest network.  I need the network to be up.  My problem is that I have a very old device to connect to wifi that does not support encryption.  In the past, I connected to a "hidden" guest network by not broadcasting the SSID so the device worked but you had to know the name of the network to connect.  Any other ideas?

  @nolamannc 

Thank you very much for the further update.

In this way, I am afraid that the guest network does not support "Hidden SSID".

Did this device support Ethernet connection?
