Sky Q download and connection dropping (solved)
Hi All, so, If you're a UK/Europe user and Orbi user, like me (last 2 years) you've probably had periods where Orbi has worked well, and periods where it has worked terribly poorly, to the point...

it is doable, by telnet into the device. You can definitely assign seperate SSID's to the device. It doesn't support it in the GUI

It is, however it's not officially supported.

well, that's probably true... but my device is out of support anyway. :-)
it was either this, or the bin.... I chose this. Works a treat. It's not ideal, would have been better if it'd work properly, and I agree, it's vendor issues with Wifi, not neccesarily Orbi (as it has, in many Firmware versions, worked absolutely fine), but recently with many Sky updates, doesn't work as it shoud.
this therefore, is a crude workaround.- FURRYe38Jun 03, 2019Guru - Experienced User
