Virgin Hub 3

I've got a Virgin Hub 3 and it has the same SSID for 2.4ghz and 5ghz.


It presently shows two VM99999 on devices that have 5ghz. (Made up SSID)


Should I rename them so that they are different e.g VM99999-2.4ghz and VM99999-5ghz or just let my devices pick whatever they want?


I do have 3 devices that use 5ghz.

    Why not rename them.

    Do whatever works in your particular circumstances. I found that where devices were given the option to choose they messed it up so renamed.

    That's what I was getting as well so I split them.
