I have recently been upgraded to the TalkTalk Sagemcom fast 5364-3.t8 router. My problem is that in the admin interface, I am unable to create a new SSID. Yes you can login and change name and password but I want to create a second SSID. This was possible and easy to configure with my last talktalk router, the dg8041w-2.t5.
Does anyone have an idea how to achieve this? I am a regular home user, not super IT geek so please be kind with replies and solutions!

No, you can't use different channels for the guest networks, I raised this before with the developers. There is new firmware due sometime soon, but until I test it, I won't know what is fixed.

Amazing Keith 🏆
Thanks very much, that has enabled me to do it!
Quick bonus question if I may. By default, the new guest 2.4Ghz and main home 2.4Ghz are using the same channel. The two 5 Ghz's share a different one. Is there an argument to separate these out further as four individual channels?

Then it does support guest networks. Just go into the Advanced mode:-

What firmware is it running, it does not support Guest SSIDs until about V158?
