SSID names and Virgin Connect app

Hello - simple question: I have recieved a new Hub 5. If I change the name of the default SSID (VM...) to my current personalised SSID (to avoid changing all the wifi set-up on many things...)  will the Virgin Connect app not find the network / not scan? As in, is it designed to look only for VM... and not personalised SSIDs? 

Hope this makes sense.

Thank you

David

TBH, I've no idea.  Judging by the comments on here about the app, it's a complete exercise in frustration.  I only tried the app once as a test, when I initially installed my Hub 3. It didn't work so it was uninstalled.

However as I put the Hub into modem mode shortly afterwards, it is of no consequence.

Hi Adduxi - thanks for the info; I never knew the app was an 'exercise in frustration' (great description) as I've only just installed it. I shall soon to be uninstalling it. One thing I did notice in the short time I have used it is the speeds the app states are far higher than any other speed tester. Hmmm.

 

Regards.
