NETGEAR is aware of a growing number of phone and online scams. To learn how to stay safe click here.
Please provide the ability to separate the SSIDs for the 2.4ghz and 5ghz WiFi bands. I need this functionality to help support my 4K media devices and some of the older 2.4ghz only devices.
Why is Netgear so hesitant to allow separate SSIDs for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? I had to use telnet to accomplish this so my security devices would work on 2.4Ghz. But now with the latest release of firmware, my separate SSIDs went away and Orbi is assigning devices the way it wants. What the heck is Netgear thinking? Give the user who paid BIG BUCKS for this device the ability to assign separate SSIDs and assign what devices they want on each. Now that devices are being assigned randomly, my streaming TVs don't work right any more and everything is being assigned to 2.4Ghz. I am ready to TRASH this darn thing and look and look for a more friendly solution that I can control.
