SSID
I own an Orbi (RBK50) AC3000. I can't figure out how to have different SSID's for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Is it possible?

the concept of the orbi is whole home wifi where the client roams between the orbi units and chooses the frequency it self when it connects , this 1 ssid , it woukld not work the same if you had 2 ssid names
if you have dual band wifi clients they should connect to 5 gig unless you are very far away from the router or sat/s

Iam trying to hook up myZmodo Smart Pan & Tilt Camera. I have had no luck getting it to work. The Zmoto instructions state that the 2.4 and the 5 GHz need to have different SSIDs. Looks like I'll have to send the camera back.
