Hello PCB511
Have you tried to disconnect the first extender when setting up the second?

I tried both doing both at the same time. (that didn't work)
I tried doing the 2nd, while 1st one was on (that didn't work)
I did the 2nd one, with the 1st one off and using the same SSID (that didn't work)
I did the 2nd one, with the 1st one off and created a new SSID (that worked)
However, now I have 2 additional SSID (for a total of 4 SSID)
Extender1 - name1_2GEXT and _5GEXT
Extender2 - name2_2GEXT and _5GEXT
name1_2GEXT and name2_2GEXT use the same channels
name1_5GEXT and name2_5GEXT use the same channels
Is there a way to get both extenders to use the same name?
Hello PCB511
You can have them both named the same but it is not recommend as it could cause issues.
