Hi Devin-2021,


We understand you're concerned about your home Wi-Fi network appearing as a public network. For this, you'll want to reach out to your internet provider for further assistance on checking out your router settings.


Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points


Also, looking at the article you came from, are you experiencing issues connecting to your Wi-Fi network?


Cheers.
