How to add another SSID under 5G - Flint 3

[MucFlyer]

I would like to add additional SSID, 5G, assigned to lan. So immagine I have one SSID already, butr need to add anouther one called let say SSID_second, getting IP from lan. I found how to do it using commandline in Flint 2 but how in 3 ? Also luci does not see those interfaces.

Hi

Please refer to: How to set up the VLAN for IoT Wi-Fi on Flint 3(GL-BE9300)

Or just running these commands via SSH

uci set wireless.iot24=wifi-iface
uci set wireless.iot24.device='wifi0' # <-- change it to `wifi1` it you want 5GHz Wi-Fi 
uci set wireless.iot24.network='lan'  # <-- bridge to LAN
uci set wireless.iot24.mode='ap'
uci set wireless.iot24.ifname='wlan05'
uci set wireless.iot24.ssid='GL-Router-IoT' # <-- SSID
uci set wireless.iot24.encryption='psk2+ccmp'
uci set wireless.iot24.key='goodlife' # <--- Password
uci set wireless.iot24.hidden='0' 
uci set wireless.iot24.isolate='0'
uci commit
reboot

Those directions work to create the iot 2.4ghz SSID but DHCP doesn't work, at least on the latest firmware 4.8.1, it refuses to give an address. The same thing happens if you attach a lan port to or trunk the guest VLAN, DHCP stops working on the guest VLAN.

The issue you’re experiencing seems unrelated to the topic of this post.
We recommend creating a new post or contacting us at [email protected] so we will not confuse anything.

For your specific case, please make sure that the newly created SSID is correctly bridged to the intended network, enabled DHCP for it and confirm that the firewall rules are configured to allow DHCP traffic to pass through.
