Can you have multiple ssids?

I believe so but only for each WLAN. We don't use it this way but you could have one SSID for 5.0 GHz and another SSID for 2.4 GHz.

Per their FAQ there are 4 SSIDs supported on one access point. You can have more in the system, but would have to spread them out over multiple access points.http://wiki.ubnt.com/UniFi_FAQ#How_Many_SSIDs_.2F_VLANs_are_supported

Yes you can... I have a corporate and Guest network on both of our AP's... When you first configure the install wizard gives you a choice to configure Guest.. Anyways you configure each SSID for whatever VLAN network you need it on.. BTW.. I'm really impressed with the device, The controller software and their support.. This was the first time using UniFi...

Yes, multiple SSID's and works great with VLAN's. You can also do a guest SSID if you don't use VLAN's and even customize a guest portal page.

Yes. You can have up to 4 devices paired at any time. The is also a "primary" device in case more than one is trying to connect to avoid device contention.

It could be more than one, using the different interface. Note I did not attempt to do that, so don't know if it will work.

Adding a second one should have no issues, since it just (like the first one) would pass along the signal using the same SSID and connection password of your original access point.

You can set up different SSIDs with each band. Obviously AC is reserved for 5ghz if you wish to use it. I have mine set up to run 2.4ghz as one SSID and 5.0 as another. Both CAN run simultaneously, but it's not required. You can run either/or without the other.

Simple answer is yes. You can give it another SID (network name) and password.

Yes,you have the ability of disabling the SSID broadcast within the settings of the extender.

No, you can have multiple units. Assuming that the main network source is in the main office, you would need to set the one at the main office up as an access point and the 3 remotes as a bridge. The remotes must have line-of-site access to the main office and the main office unit would need to be pointed in the direction of the remotes. If the main unit is not pointed in the direction of all remotes, then another unit may have to be installed as an access point at the main office and pointed to connect to those remotes not covered by the first one.

I remember reading at the time I bought the device, that it was possible to connect more than one unit on a network. I believe there are some steps that have to be taken for it all to work.

I think if you have IAPP (Inter-Access Point Protocol) enabled with the same SSID then you may be able to connect and seamlessly transition from one router to another. I think you could use multiple REA20 but you have to set the RTS threashold lower as the REA20 are going to be hidden nodes which would be a huge problem with that many hidden node. Nodes are any device that are interconnected like the router, laptops, phones etc. Lets say you have your phone on the edge of one network and a repeater on the other end. Another phone could be connected to the other end on the repeater side. Since the two phones are not able to see each other collisions are likely to occur. RTS attempts to correct this by sending a Request to send (RTS) through the network. The main node will send back a CTS (Clear to send) if it is ready to receive data that won't collide. The lower setting will decrease throughput but having collisions likely will cause inconsistent speeds. You do have to play around with the settings to get the best performance.

After reading a lot of articles in regard to routers in general, it seems to me that assigning separate SSID to each band is desirable so that you can access the different bands from different devices. Actually, one article said, that because a lot is shared in one device, having two different wireless with a band on each would give the best - non-shared - access. If you only have one or two devices, this may not be important. But even with few devices, if some are old and some new, it would be a good idea to give distinct SSID to each band. There is a lot more that could be said, but this is the simple answer.

Yes, the router sends out the SSID. I have six different devices via WiFi and two via hardwire connected to the router.
2181258
Yes, with some configuration. This device acts as a wireless AP, but has both AP and bridge mode. So, the one Ethernet that it has can be used to connect to the printer. Then have the Trendnet associate with you existing SSID in bridge mode.
2067795
Yes, either a switch or hub will enable you to connect multiple devices. If it is a secured connection each device will need to pass the appropriate credentials (name/password).

you should be able to use your old SSID. But don't sweat it because they have an excellent support dept. They can walk you through anything.

well ..for me it didn't worked at all. I couldn't setup that damn thing at all and couldn't get support from ubiquity either.came bricked. But from specs i don't think it's designed to be used this way (repeater). If you wire-daisy-ching with another router it shouldn't be a problem having the same SSID. For complete wireless repeating purposes i've used Netgear WNR3500v2/U/L (with dd-wrt)

yes, you can. i do not think there is a limitation for how many extension devises you can add to it. it is just like an ethernet line.
