Model: Archer A5  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 3.16.0 0.9.1 v6015.0

Hello,

 

I have tp-link archer a5 router. Currently, it broadcasts two SSIDs for different frequencies (2.4 and 5). I'm unable to use same name for both SSIDs.

 

Is there anyway i could rename both the SSIDs to one single name so that whatever the device connects to wi-fi it will figure out the best possible network.

 

Thanks!

Hello, you can use the same SSID and password for the two wifi networks.

 

You can login to the web UI to configure them; if it failed, please check whether there is any error message.

 

Besides, you can use thhe Tether app if possible.

 

Good day.
