In the app it does have a guest wifi that you can use as an additional ssid. I use that for my smart devices at the moment but it would be great if they could incorporate the functionality to configure multiple ssid's. That way you could keep them septated from other day to day devices and not have to use the guess wifi for this.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Unfortunately no, the eero FAQ I think has their reasoning for not supporting that. Initially that was a massive problem as I've lots of dumb 'smart' devices that only operate on the 2.4 band. It creates a setup issue with some of those devices since when you're setting them up your smartphone/tablet if may need to be connected to the same band as you are configuring the device, but the phone/tables wants to/will connect to the 5Ghz band. Fortunately I found that hasn't been that big an issue as you can in the eero software tell it to disable the 5Ghz network temporarily for 15 minutes - no interruptions: 5Ghz devices temporarily fall back to 2.4, I setup whatever 2.4 only device, and several minutes later everything that fell back returns to the 5Ghz band.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can, but you would need an additional eero. If you still have your ISP router, you can also use that for a 2nd (non guest) network, but you would need to add a switch after the ONT, then connect both your ISP router and Eero to the switch. Although this method involves manually editing your IP, subnet, and DHCP ranges.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There’s no setting to set these individually, At least I couldn’t find it using the Eero app.
