Hi

Does the TD-W8970 support Multiple SSID's ?

I have looked through the documentation but there is no mention, but I have seen a couple of forum posts on other sites that users have said it does support multiple SSID's.

Thanks
Kev

No, you just cannot have multiple SSID'S with TP-W8970... Maybe you have see that for other modem routers or just plain routers this ability, but TD-W8970 has not this functionality.... Maybe by using third party firmware like for example OpenWRT (has not released yet firmware for td-w8970 but there is work in progress. Who knows, maybe they will add that functionality).

(im not tp-link representative. Im just like you, owner/user of TD-W8970)

You can't see multi ssid options on TD-W8970;s management interface,which means this product doesn't have this function.I remember that all current TP-LINK ADSL products don't have multi-ssid,but some wireless routers do have this function.On TP-LINK official website ,Support----TP-LINK Emulators,there are a lot of products listed,where you can find the management of various products(But any configuration won't take effect as it's just an emulator).So you can find what product have the function you have.Here is the URL: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/emulators/

Hi Dave and Lebron

Many thanks for your replies which answers my question.

That's a real shame, as the TD-W8970 has everything (other than Multiple SSID's) that I need and at a great price too......my search for a replacement ADSL Router continues

Thanks
Kevin
