I use an Orbi (one main and one satellite) as it is 3 story house with brick walls and chimneys - single router left too many blind spots. I have Orbi configured as an AP to provide 2.4ghz and 5Ghz Wifi as 2 different SSIDs (but IIRC can be configured as one). SB boxes are on 2.4, PCs, tablets and media streams all use 5Ghz. There is a separate 5Ghz connection between main and satellite. Works OK and no problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109101 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
