Duplication SSID

Duplication SSID

Hello,

We have 2 SSID here, "public" and "private". There is a password on each.
But someone told me he can't see the "public" SSID, he sees "public2" and the "public" 's password doesn't work on it. So he can't connect.

Why does it create another SSID like that? And what I have to do to connect him to "public"?

Thank you.

It's solved.

public SSID was saved in its wireless connections. I removed it and it was again possible to see the public SSID and connect to it.

It's maybe the reason why there were a "public2" SSID...

*just thinking*

Sounds like a Windows Hotspot - try disabling on that PC

Hello,

Thank you for your answers.

Only one computer sees the SSID "public2" and If I take my phone and I check SSID in my airspace, I don't see "public2" but I see "public". That's why it's strange for me.

When I do a show wireless wlan, I don't see "public2", and each is enabled.
Each radio deploy each wlan, so it's correct.

I could say it's an error from the Windows, but I already saw the "public2" appeared once on my iPhone.

I'm stuck.

Hi Jo,

You can always run Netspot, Acrylic, InSSIDer or else to see the BSSID of the network that is seen by your users to have better view on that (whether this wireless network is really yours or your neighbor's).
