TP-Link WDR4300 cannot create mesh networks with same name on two radios #138

This is likely default behavior for a good reason, but it isn't possible to create mesh interfaces on two separate radios with the same name, for instance "testbed" or commotionwireless.net. It will give an error message. For branding / identity purposes, many networks may want 2GHz and 5GHz mesh network names to be identical.
