1gb Home Broadband Router
We have a brand-new VirginMedia 1gb router.
I prefer to have 2.4GHz and 5GHz showing as two separate WiFi's on my home networks.
To this end, under Advanced Settings/Wireless/Wireless Signal, I've disabled Channel Optimisation, and clicked on 'apply changes'.
I then click on Security and set it so the two networks publish two different names, and again click on 'apply changes'.
This all works fine for a time. Both networks show independently of each other and works exactly as expected.
However, after a day or two, only one network shows, and if I go back into the router settings, under Advanced Settings/Wireless Signal/Smart WiFi the Channel Optimisation has been enabled again.
It's almost as if something is resetting it without authorisation.
Anyone got any ideas?
The VM Connect app will re-enable Smart Wi-Fi and re-merge the two SSID if it is installed on your mobile phone.
