• It uses the same wifi name for both bands. But the only problem I encountered was having to reconnect to the wifi for those devices that had previously used what had been named xxx-5g and was now just xxx. Otherwise, devices automatically connected at their highest possible speed.

• Hi, wally. Yes, you can so long as you set different SSIDs/names for both wireless bands.
