Is it possible to have different SSIDs for the master unit and repeater of the same segment?

Asked 2 years ago, Updated 2 years ago, 133 views

Currently, we have two wireless LANs, the master unit is 192.168.1.1 and the repeater is 192.168.11.1, each with a different SSID (ESSID?).

Also, I would like to have the master unit 192.168.1.1 and the repeater 192.168.1.2 and have a separate SSID. Is it possible to have the slave unit connected to the master unit and the slave unit connected to the repeater in the same segment?

Note:
Both master repeater and buffalo WHR-G300N have OpenWRT firmware.
The IP address of the child when connected to the current master unit is 192.168.1.* and 192.168.11.* for the repeater.

I've just set up the BUFFALO master and repeater, so I'm not sure if it'll be helpful, but I'll answer.

Optical Modem Router (192.168.100.1) - Wireless LAN Master (192.168.100.2) - Relay 1 (192.168.100.3) - Relay 2 (192.168.101.1) - Relay 3 (192.168.102.1)

In the above connection path, the wireless LAN master unit emits two radio waves: SSID: abcde_A (2.4 GHz) and abcde_G (5 GHz).
There is a screen where you can choose which SSID of the master unit to relay when setting up the repeater. When abcde_G is selected, the repeater emits SSID:abcde_G radio waves.
Therefore, I don't think it's possible to make a separate SSID between the master unit and the repeater.

By the way, the segment of repeater 2 and repeater 3 is different from repeater 1 and master unit. If it is the same, it cannot be entered into the management screen, so it is set like this.
I'm a real person, but I hope it will be helpful.

After I answered above, I looked into it, but

It seems that you can configure a different SSID here.
