Model: Archer MR400  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I want to set the same SSID on both 2.4GHz & 5GHz networks on Archer MR400. Is this possible? The web admin UI implies a different SSID for each network.

It is possible, the wireless settings can be customized and you can give them the same network name.

 

You can access the web UI and go to advanced-wireless page or basic-wireless page to change them.

 

Good day.

@Kevin_Z is this a good idea though?  Why would I want the same or why would I want separate.  Also.  Is separate, what types of devices do I want linked to what signal?
