We are a senior living community and we have had WiFi installed through the entire building. To do this, multiple routers have benn put in throughout the building with the same SSID. This is so that you can move through the building and always have a connection. We can not change the SSID. When trying to connect any printers through WiFi, it fails and says that there is more that one access point/router with the same name and that is why. Is there a way around this?

Hello,
Based on your situation, if it is not possible to change the SSID, then i'd recommend you to use the Printer's Wireless Direct feature to connect to printer and print/Scan.
