My Wi-Fi networks
I have configured my Wi-Fi router to provide four wireless networks: HomeNet_Main HomeNet_Guest HomeNet_SmartDevices HomeNet_HVAC HomeNet_Main This is the primary wireless network for our home.

The user has configured four distinct wireless networks on their Wi-Fi router, each with specific settings to ensure security and separate functionality. The primary network, named HomeNet_Main, is intended for personal devices such as PCs, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones, offering a secure connection to the internet. It utilizes both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands and hides its Service Set Identifier (SSID) to prevent unauthorized access. The network employs WPA2/WPA3-Personal authentication with AES encryption.
HomeNet_Guest is designated for guests to connect to the internet without affecting other networks. It also operates on both frequency bands and has its SSID hidden. The network uses the same authentication and encryption methods as HomeNet_Main.
HomeNet_SmartDevices is exclusively used by Internet of Things (IoT) devices, ensuring that any potential issues from a compromised device remain isolated. This network operates solely on the 2.4 GHz band and has its SSID hidden. It also uses WPA2/WPA3-Personal authentication with AES encryption and MAC filtering to further enhance security.
HomeNet_HVAC serves two smart thermostats used for managing HVAC systems. This network is also limited to the 2.4 GHz band and hides its SSID. It enforces strict MAC filtering to prevent unauthorized devices from connecting, ensuring the security of the HVAC systems.
