Totally new to having a NAS, was given an old Netgear Readynas 102. I've learned to set it up so that all the smart devices, (tv's ipads etc etc) can access films/music/documents etc on it through being DNLA enabled.
I used to use a TP-Link Archer VR900 modem/router set up with a guest network, so was quite happy that private documents etc, couldn't be accessed by guests.
Having moved house I could only get broadband through BT and was sent a Smart Hub2, this doesn't have the facility for a guest network, so how do I stop guests accessing the NAS when they are logged into my home network? I have tried reading through varied explanations but to be honest a lot of it goes over my head, is there a simple way (for an old fogey like me) to control access without stopping all the tv's etc having access?
I would be tempted to go back to the TP-Link, but BT are sending me 2 discs free of charge to help with no/poor signal areas around the house.
The NAS uses OS 6.10.4 if that's any help.
Thank you for reading this, hope you can help.
