There is no option to set up a guest network on the Smarthub. You would need to purchase a third party router that offers the facility in order to do that.

If you have the BTWhole Home discs you can set up a guest network on that.

See link.

I thought that could have been the answer I have an apple AirPort Extreme that will do exactly what I want but it knocked out by bt now tv channels when I connected it up

in the end I have connected the wan port of my airport extreme to one of the ethernet ports on the hh set a different subnes left it in router mode yes its double nat but have set to ignore the error from what I read double nat will only affect things I do not use ad might introduce gaming latency which is not an issue for me I have tested that the guest network is indeed device from my main network and all seems well 🙂
