How do I broadcast 5 and 2.4 networks SSID’s on RBR20
Greetings, Using an RBR20 I need to broadcast both 5 and 2.4 networks SSID. Any help would be much appreciated.
Do you mean having separate SSIDs on the Orbi? If so, NG doesn't support the separation of SSIDs on Orbi. The 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz are operated under 1 SSID. Orbi and the devices automatically get the devices connected to either frequency based on there support, signal and noise conditions.
IF your having problems connecting devices to the Orbi you can temporarily disable the 5Ghz SSID broadcast while you get your 2.4Ghz devices connected to the RBR. Then re-enable the 5Ghz SSID afterwards.
Thank you for your reply. Those settings do not broadcast as separate network SSIDs.
There not meant to. Just disables the SSID broadcast is all.
Are you having problems with your Orbi? More details would be needed. What are you trying to accomplish.
