Network names
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TD-W8980
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP : BT Internet
I purchased my router on Monday and installed it yesterday with no problems and very quickly with the setup wizard. I was also able to connect my wireless printer via WPS and my smartphone without WPS.
However, I am confused about the wireless network names. I have read the manual, but nothing came to light. During the setup I gave them the same name.
1) Should I use different names for the 2.4 and 5 GHz options?
2) If so, which is best for the printer, smartphone and a Kindle (yet to be attached).
I am using the Ethernet connection for my PC.
