The more SSIDs being broadcast the more airtime is wastes on broadcasting them. SSIDs are also broadcast at a much lower speed so even though it’s a trivial amount of data, it takes longer to send. You ideally want as few SSIDs a possible but sometimes it’s unavoidable, like if you have an open guest network, or multiple authentication types used for different SSIDs.
Is there a measurable, real-world effect? Because if so, I don’t see it, and I can max out my router’s bandwidth pretty easily without noticing any slowdowns (this is with 30+ devices across three different SSIDs).
