Setup multiple access points and ranger extenders with same SSID

Impatient?

  • Each AP can have same SSID
  • They should be on different non-overlapping channels

Configuration tips

  • Set radio power Set radio power to as low or medium
  • Use RSSI in advanced settings to facilitate clients roaming to the “best” AP.

Example

One user has all thier 2G APs on 1, 6 or 11 keeping APs on the same channel as far away as possible and on Low power and RSSI -75dbm.  In the 5G space they have all the APs on different channels and Medium power, with band seteering enabled and RSSi -75dbm (with them on low power in the 5G space they find most clients use 2G even with band setting enabled)
