ex6100 extender - broadcasting question

If I choose to turn off broadcasting the SSID's for both wifi channels, can i still connect to them? If so, what are the steps to link to a non-broadcasted SSID?

Hello pakman007 - Your devices can still connect to them but you will have to do it manually. Please check the user manual of your devices to find out how you can connect manually.

 

For example, on an iPhone when you view WiFi networks to connect to, you'll have the option to select Other and configure it manually.
