    The basic answer to your question is yes.  Would have to ask if you have your RAX43 configured to give you separate SSID's for the normal Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands plus the guest Wi-Fi options?  Usually that results in a total of four different SSID's.

     

    With your present configuration, do you have only one SSID with all of the bands merged together?

      That's kind of a weird question. You want an additional SSID for some reason or do you want to extend your coverage?
