perhaps segment things differently. There are a lot of people who just "e=

I would say that additional SSID ?=3D VLAN and would suggest that your LAN =
party try to use wired connections for better performance. If you don't wa=
nt to reveal your wifi password by all means set up another SSID but it doe=
s not need to necessarily be in a different VLAN.

Isn't the whole idea of this "Internet of Things" is that everything commun=
icates to everything. Assuming that is the goal, what does VLANing do for =
you?
