[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1748472, member: 110816"] Most recent routers generate access points for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz ranges since having 2.4 GHz devices on the 5 GHz network causes the entire network to slow down. This way, you can isolate the devices on their own networks. Default SSID's might include the words "24 Ghz and 5 GHz" somewhere in there.. Another quick test you can run is to unplug the router and the extender which should invalidate all access points and if that is indeed the case and plugging JUST the router brings back the VMxxx and VMxxx_EXT_EXT SSID's, then it is indeed your router.
