Changing SSID

With the PlusNet Hub One can you change the SSID while connected via WiFi or do you need to be on a wired connection?

 

Thanks

Fix

I've never had a problem changing a router's SSID via WiFi before, obviously the connection will drop but you simply scan for the new network name and reconnect.

@Gandalf @Browni

Thanks for the info.

 

Would have tested things myself today but OpenReach failed to show up to do my FTTP connection. While I use a wired connection my neighbour uses WiFi (and will need to change things if OpenReach show up tomorrow!!!).

 

Waiting to hear what happened to my appointment.
