Roaming Guidelines

An ASUS WLAN card can only roam between APs of the same type.

All ASUS APs must have the same SSID.

All ASUS WLAN cards must have the same SSID as the APs that they will roam between.

If WEP encryption is enabled, then all ASUS APs and client adapters must use the same encryption level and WEP Key(s) to communicate.

ASUS APs’ cells must overlap to ensure that there are no gaps in coverage and to ensure that the roaming client will always have a connection available.

ASUS APs that use the same Channel should be installed as far away from each other as possible to reduce potential interference.

It is strongly recommended that you perform a site survey using the utility provided with the ASUS WLAN card to determine the best location for each ASUS AP in the building.
