How to setup two SSID with one Access Point?

Answer 1

You can not set up two SSID's on the same access point.

The WS2000 mentioned below will not do what you are asking either. That is a management system were you can plug in multiple access points and manage them all from one location.

The only way to have two SSID's being broadcast on one network is to have multiple access points with different SSID's.

Answer 2

You can't as far as I know unless you buy a managed system such as the Motorola WS2000 / WS5100. These products don't use access point but dumb access ports connected to a central controller called a wireless switch. Have a look at the following:

You will see link on the left to other managed wireless systems.

The WS2000 will allow you to have up to 6 ports and each of these can be in any combination 4 virtual (ie have their own SSID) lans. You can also set the priority for each of these lans. Thus you could have an Office wLan for staff and a open public wLan for visitors.

Answer 3

as far as i know, you could only set up one.
