My Unifi AP broadcats 2 SSIDs both on 2 separate VLANS. Ive seen in reddit that many ppl do the same even in companies networks.
Ive seen A LOT of people recommend and/or create “router-on-a-stick” setups with one WAN and one LAN gear - either with custom hardware (pfsense,opnsense, sophox xg, openwrt) or commercial boxes like Firewalla purlple, netgate, etc.

So is hopping not as serious threat as various youtube videos show?
