SSID with Boosters
Hello, I just received two boosters to help with my home wifi. Is there an issue with naming the booster network the same as the T3200 network? I thought they created a wifi mesh network, so the ...
- So after setting the boosters up to the same SSID as the actiontec, our internet was brutal. Devices would drop, speed was terrible (we have gigabit). I found another help article that told me to disable the 2.4ghz band on the t3200 but keep the 5ghz enabled, as you need it for remote Optik boxes. As soon as I removed the 2.4 band on the router the boosters started working about 1000 time’s better.
Thanks, I couldn’t find any documents that mentioned that!
