Sky puck wifi

Hi guys

Is there anyway to add more than one WiFi network to the puck. I have my house set out with multiples networks and specifically don't have them use the same ssid for other reasons. I take the puck into multiple rooms and will struggle with WiFi signal. I then have to go throught the hassle of resetting the network and switching to a different network. Now I have found a way round it for the time being by switching on the hotspot on my phone using the same name as my main network but it isn't a perfect solution. I have essentially made a portable stream so I can carry it around my home like a tablet and runs off a power bank. Sky go just sucks in comparison not offering all channels as well as no ad skip hence going this route.

No: that's just not a scenario which would have been anticipated by the designers.

No I get that but my ps5 can do multiple, my TV can do multiple even my AC can it just seems silly not to.invlude it. I think in General it would provide a better experience especially in larger homes as most modern devices will latch onto the network with the best connection quality.
