Is it possible to set your Boost Wi-Fi network name the SAME as the main Telus modem network name?
Hi, I've got the T3200M modem and just got a starter pack of Boosts. I used to have an Extender, which I did not like because it was running a different SSID (I was told it's not a good idea to use ...
That would be good news. To be clear, if my T3200M network name is MAIN let's say, I can change the network name on my two Boost packs to MAIN also, with the same password, without causing any interference / conflict by both broadcasting?
Re: you comment if I "have a TV connected to WiFi", do you mean if I have Optik TV? (I don't BTW.)
Right now my TV is connected to my T3200M via an ethernet cable. But if I was to run it off WiFi, why would it matter? If the above setup doesn't cause conflict for any other device connecting wirelessly?
PS So why do they "explain how to disable the Wi-Fi network running in the background of your Boost Wi-Fi network through your Wi-Fi modem"? They don't actually say what the issue is they're trying to fix...
Nor do they clearly just say that the main gateway conflicts with the Boost network. Why else would they provide these instructions then?
