Orbi ... bummer ... no separate SSIDs

Bummer ... really wanted to go the Orbi route in replacing my aged Airport Extreme.  Love the dedicated 5 GHz backhaul.  And the hub/spoke architecture fits my domicile perfectly.  CostCo even has a sale on the three pack this week!

 

But that single SSID is a deal breaker.  I want to be able to force devices onto 2.4 or 5 bandwidths based on usage ... Smiley Sad

 

Definitely will recommend Orbi to others that do not care about that.

Hello Koolmeme


Sorry to hear that is a deal breaker for you. Hopefully you will reconsider in the future.
