Re: ot: multiple wifi AP for covarage

There are UniFi, I never tried them but they
promise zero handoff roaming, if you use only their AP.

however, they are not cheap.

Hello

I'm facing with the following problem:

one wifi router does not cover the area i need

if I put multiple access points. the laptops /
smartphones does not switch access points
automatically, and i find myself with terrible
data rate because the laptop is still connected to
a remote AP, while a closer is a meter from me

i tried to put all APs with same ESSID, but that no
help

I think that it's not enough that all the APs have the
same ESSID. You also have to verify that the security
settings are exactly the same on all of the access points,
and that each access point is using a different channel.

using a repeater if i understand correctly will not
help either (and i get worse throughput)

any idea ?
