VigorAP 805 SSID-Per-NIC was created by troozers
Hi, 

I currently have a Vigor AP903 and am looking at getting a couple of VigorAP 805 to act in a mesh mode, however I wanted to check that some of the capability of the 903 is also available on the 805.

I need to have two SSIDs (Internal and Guest) and have each of those SSIDs associated with a particular LAN port.  Is this option still available on the AP 805?

Many thanks for your hlp

That's not an available option on the 903 is it? Unless you're talking about the "two subnet" option? As far as I can see the 805 only has 2 LAN ports, of which only one is used at a time, in any event. But then I'm only gleaning this by reading the manual, so I may not know what I'm talking about.

It's entirely possible, and very probable, that I've not explained this very well.

Under "Wireless LAN > General Setup" it shows a screen where you can associate an SSID with a LAN interface.  Hopefully the screenshot I've taken and attached here is showing this.

I've got a pair of 805's - not in mesh mode.

However, they have a single LAN only - no option in the interface to create a second.

Both LAN ports are always on the same LAN - but they are both useable at the same time - not sure why you'd think wasn't the case (@piste basher) - i.e. in my case one connection back to main switch other connected to a smart speaker.

So you were thinking of the "two subnet" option on the 903. As IanFretwell says, that option does not apear to be available on the 805 - and I stand corrected, both may be in use simultaneously but they are on the same LAN.
