How many SSIDs can a router have?
3 SSIDs
No more than 3 SSIDs should be enabled on any single AP. Each SSID should have band-steering enabled. Legacy bit rates should be disabled on each SSID. Only enable an SSID on an AP if needed.
What are the benefits of having multiple SSIDs on the same router?

That way, you will end up with a degree of isolation, especially when you set up the router in an environment with many users.
