5 years agoBy enabling the guest network you are making a change to the router. Removing the app and reinstalling will not change that.
You can modify the password by using Edit for the Guest network in the app.

Looks like I didn't make it clear. The issue is if I activate the guest network with a customized guest password using the Telus MyWifi app, it still activates the guest network as the open network meaning without any password any device can join the guest network and that is the issue.

What if you log on to the router via browser and set the guest network password, does it behave the same or does it turn on the security?

I can set the Wifi Name but it displays a hard text of 'Open System'. I don't see any way to set the password via browser. See SS. The router is Cylindrical Wifi-Hub (ARCA). I also had a telus technician to walk this through, according to him this seems a weird issue, IMHO a security issue from Telus itself better escalate it before its too late
