Model: Deco XE75  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.2.5

I want to set up a new system at a new location but have the same SSID as my existing home network.

 

Other than the new Deco units, can I do that without buying additional hardware or software to manage the systems?

 

Am thing I could just set up a separate login account for the second system.

Hey  @CraignWynne13,

This should not be a problem, and you actually do not even need to create a separate login for the second system.

In the Deco app where you select that you want to add a new node, there is also an option to add a new network. This allows you to have two separate Deco networks operating under one account.

 

It is worth noting that these networks will not share their settings so you would need to configure both networks to use the same SSID, Password and Security settings.

  @Riley_S 

thank you for confirming what I need to do. Main thing I will need to do is reset one of the deco units since it was connected to my first location network.
