TELUS Boost Wi-Fi 3.0 (C004)
I just got my 3 gig fiber setup the other day.
Very happy with speed etc, but the ability to configure the AP is very limited...
I cant even change the name of the Smart Things SSID...
I have some devices I want to get onto my network like my 3d printer and some IP cameras that don't connect unless they are on an isolated 2.4g SSID and I don't want to have to go to each device and reset them to work with the weird SSID name that telus has applied... Much easier to just leave each device with the settings they already have and change the AP smartthings SSID and network password to match what I had working before...
I cant even really split off the 2.4 and 5 either, If I disable smart steering it takes the 6gig out but the 2.4 and 5 are still merged...
the firmware in this "advanced" wifi AP is very primitive...
is there by chance something hidden that I can access to get some more abilities out of this? At this point I am ready to toss it and get something from Unifi...

Hey JustSumDad - just to confirm. Are you logging in to the Boost's IP address? Or are you logging in to the NAH?

I would not see any wifi settings other wise :)

At this time, the TELUS Wi-Fi 6/SmartThings Hub has limited customization options, including SSID renaming on the SmartThings network and fully separating the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. There aren’t any hidden advanced settings available beyond what’s provided in the app. If you require more granular control for devices like printers or IP cameras, you can use your own third-party router or mesh system. Many customers choose that route for advanced configuration needs.
