Ex3700 wifi name

Greeting, In extender mode can/should the wifi name be the same as the main wifi name that you are connecting to ?

You can set it the same. 

But the EX3700 isn't a mesh extender so it doesn't have any of the smart roaming features. so devices will be "stickier" than a mesh device. Meaning devices will tend to stay connected to the router or extender longer and not be as efficient with its roaming. Most newer phones/tablets/devices tend to have their own roaming protocols built in so it might not be to bad.
