    Hi @Damien

    Yes, it is possible to have two SSIDs with different IP address ranges. As PeterUK mentioned, you can achieve this by setting up VLANs on your Zyxel Access Point (AP) and configuring your USG FLEX firewall to handle the different IP address ranges for each VLAN.

    Here's a brief overview of the steps:

    1. Configure VLANs on the USG FLEX:
      • Log in to your USG FLEX web interface.
      • Navigate to Configuration > Network > Interface > VLAN.
      • Create VLANs for each SSID with the desired IP address range.
    2. Set up SSIDs on the Access Point:
      • Log in to your Zyxel Access Point's web interface.
      • Go to Configuration > Wireless > SSID.
      • Create or edit the SSIDs and assign them to the corresponding VLANs.
    3. Assign VLANs to SSIDs:
      • In the same SSID configuration section, ensure each SSID is tagged with the correct VLAN ID.
    4. VLAN Traffic Through Switches:
      • Ensure VLAN traffic is allowed if there is any switch between your AP and firewall.

    Yes then with the AP and PoE+ to USG and AP config the given VLAN IP subnet on that base port with a zone with SSID AP setting to the given VLAN ID
