Hi,
I hope that the community is doing well.

Recently I bought a Tenda router that has a repeater mode among other features. For easiness lets consider this scenario.

3 Tplink routers. SSID: CUP.
1 Tenda router. Set repeater mode and connected to CUP
For more coverage, same CUP SSID is set in Tenda.

Question. Will it effect the repeater mode. Or should I set different name in Tplink for repeater mode to work perfectly.

What is the best way. Advice needed.

Thank you

Repeaters must offer up a different SSID name from the SSID they are repeating for.
