Multiple SSID

[Rachel+Wych]

Can anybody advise if it is possible to setup multiple SSIDs on any of Sky BB packages / routers.

i want to setup a separate WiFi network for all my IOT devices (cctv, fridges, etc) to separate them from my main network. I also want to setup a guest SSID.

i have done this using Unifi network (connected to Sky router) but would like to turn my Unify network off as I suspect this is conflicting with my hive system.

Certainly the only way to do this with the black sr203 is to separate the two bands then rename them. But far from ideal and I think only a third party wifi router would be able to do this.

There isn't any Sky Hub model which can facilitate a 'Guest' network: that would be unusual on any ISP router.

I think "Guest network" setup is standard on Virgin Media routers (at least here in Ireland)

I think it is historical(?) as they allow/ed "any" virgin user to access the internet via your router unless you disabled(!) this "feature", i.e. on their own "guest network" on your router... 
The functionality was built in, so they offered it to their customers too.
