Multiple WIFI network on an ORBI
Hello Orange keeps changing the name of my two WIFI network 😫 so my Alexa is down each time. I have about 80 devices so there is no question I have to change the setting of those devices each time...

Hello
I have found that you can have 3 x WIFI network that have 2 x SSID, one for 2.4 and one for 5 ghz
Netgear send a note today about 6 ghz

Orbi doesn't support having separate SSID names.
One system that does support separate SSID name is the Nighthawk MK series MESH systems.

My Idea is to add this two WIFI network to my 3x ORBI
I need to add a 5GHZ and a 2.4 GHZ Wifi Network with a different already defined name
Is it possible ? how ?
Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards

Hello
Thank you very much for your answer.
I just had an idea : can you define the "WIFI invited" as a 2.4GHZ connexion
If no :
- Do you know another router that is not "mobile" ?
Best Regards
