Re: Is it possible to set your Boost Wi-Fi network name the SAME as the main Telus modem network name?
The one main issue I see is that if you connected to the router wifi, your device will stay locked on to that even if the signal becomes weak. Since it is not part of the mesh network, there is no hand-off to the ap with a stronger signal.50KViews0likes4CommentsRe: Is it possible to set your Boost Wi-Fi network name the SAME as the main Telus modem network name?
I have the exact same question. 1. Actiontec T3200M 2. 2 pack telus boost mesh kit Unplugged the older actiontec wifi extender since it did not share the same wifi ssid name as the main router. I have the mesh network setup with my routers original ssid name and password, but for now I have disabled the router wifi signal since no one has a definite answer about using the same ssid name and whether or not it can act like a 3rd mesh ap. I even contacted telus support and the tech told me it's the first time he was ever asked this question. His answer was that Telus would not provide equipment that would not be incompatible with each other.........BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH!!!!! Helloooo......what about the previous wifi extenders that auto generated a similar ssid like my router one.....but added "2.4G" and "5G" with both names it created? It caused soo much confusion with some of my users at home. For now, I am keeping my router wifi off, but it really would be a nice bonus if it is confirmed that the T3200M can act as a 3rd mesh ap.50KViews0likes0Comments
