AC1200 R6120 ROUTER

I just bought Netgear AC1200 R6120 Router and have a question. Can I have 2 different SSID names and 2 separate security passphrases or do I have to use only 1 in both the 2.4 Ghz and the 5 Ghz in the wireless section in Basic once you login to the routerlogin on line? Also can I change the password back to the defualt without any problems? I'm not sure what to do? Help!

    Hi KuanYinTi,

     

    Yes, you can set different SSID's and WiFi passwords for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. Yes, you can also change it back to the defaults if you prefer.
