Client dropping and appears to be getting an AP much further away

    Posted Oct 17, 2014 11:00 AM

    I have an iPad that keeps getting disconnected from the wireless for some reason.  Outside of the users classroom is an AP-225 ( Smith/Reagan,  about 50' down the hall is an AP-105 ( FJH-Middle ), and then back again.     The log file i'm attaching shows the iPad disconnecting from the AC access point and connecting to the one much further away.    It wouldn't be an issue if it didn't happen frequently throughought the day.   I've had it happen to me as well using my iMac on wireless but I don't have a debug log for it.

     

    Any tips/suggestions on stopping this from happening? 

     

     

    Here is the debug log:

     

     

    Thanks!
