There are 90 SSIDs detected, most are cars, hotspots, and some printers. Majority are using 2.4GHz. But with our other sites they see the same amount of SSIDs (sometimes more) but aren't having issues. I'm doing a stare and compare between the other sites and everything seems to be the same... this is a shared building so maybe someone around us it causing problems.

You can assign a VLAN to an SSID (Wi-Fi Name), each SSID can have its own VLAN tag. However its recommended not to have too many active SSIDs... at my org we try to have our IT equipment wired on its own VLAN, and if there is anything that is only wireless we use an SSID that still tags the device to put it in the IT VLAN. To setup VLAN tagging per SSID go to Wireless > Access Control > VLAN Tagging

I was looking into wireless connection problems with a client and saw high utilization on the 2.4Ghz band. I thought it had to do with channel interference so I moved the channels around the APs seemed to improve slightly for a day but its back up to high utilization. The 4 AP's that are "very high" are all on channel 1. Things I've done: Turned on band steering, organized AP's channels for less overlap Possible problem: There are 10 APs at this site which I think is a little overkill, but would the APs being on different channels not avoid that problem? Also, the transmit power is set to 26 dBm. Any help is appreciated!

Hi, I am looking at configuring a warm spare for redundancy. Is there a way to copy the config from one router to another? Thanks!
