Multiple Wi-Fi names for Google OnHub setup
In short, you're looking to use a Google OnHub while dealing with Bluetooth headphones and Wi-Fi interference. If your phone connects to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, it causes issues with streaming high-quality video. You're wondering if splitting into two SSIDs or forcing the phone to stay on 5GHz would help. Given your setup—only a few walls in the way—you might find performance stable most of the time, but you should test both options.
Starting with solid concrete and Wi-Fi works best together, particularly at 5 GHz. Most dual-band routers let you set up two different networks for each frequency band, excluding guest connections. I organize my setup this way. Key devices like streaming gear use 5 GHz, while everything else operates on 2.4 GHz. Also, depending on your region, North America offers 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz spectrum—giving you options to switch to less crowded channels and reduce interference.
