SSID Naming

Is it possible to create different SSIDs for the 2.4 & 5 GHz networks?  

 

Say  twocybers and twocybers 5GHz

  • Right now there is not an option to have two separate SSID names.  Can only designate one and the software manages which network your device connects to (2.4 vs 5GHz).   As an option you can enable the guest network and name that something different but again the software will determine which band the device connects to (2.4 vs 5GHz).
