ive amended mine due to adding 5ghz so now pottytoes and pottytoes5 (i know so original)

I run mine to both have the same name and let the clients choose the network. I've also made my network favor 5Ghz.

I too call mine "Skynet". There is a reason for it...

 

I use Eero and the app used to have a design where it would say: "Name of network" is online. So I actually renamed my network so this would say "Skynet is online".

 

Eero has since changed the app design so it does not say this anymore. But I left the name.

 

One of best names I heard of recently was "FBISuvellienceVan1"

i did that for a while but i found the 5gHz signal quality upstairs was poorer than downstairs. ive left the skyHD unit downstairs enjoying the 5Ghz and anyhting fixed. Im lucky i can get a 2.4ghz channel 11 to be nice and clear with no converging ssids from neighbours.

The SSID is Helium (lightest element), mobile devices named as other lighter than air/gaseous elements and all of my desktop/server systems are named for heavier elements.

    • Finally some article that flips the script on the rage baiting, click baiting and hate mongering by Neowin in recent years. It works for you as a website, but it's completely wrong when considering real usage. Yes, it works just fine if you install it on unsupported machines with Rufus or Ventoy, no downsides.
    • 0 chance of that happening, forget it. Get it installed by some tech guy or do it yourself with the bypasses, that's how MS is being lenient and looking the other way to give users a chance.
