IAP325 : modify the wifi range

  • 1.  IAP325 : modify the wifi range

    Posted Jul 12, 2017 11:32 AM

    Hi everybody!

     

    First of all, i'm fairly new with aruba network and english is not my native language, so please, be kind!

     

    For my new job, i've to add a Wi-Fi network to the building. My boss don't want that the network spreads too much outside the building. So, i'm looking for a solution to reduce the range of the AP. We use an Aruba IAP325 for the tests.

     

    I tried to modify the settings in "RF/Advanced options/RADIO" and set those options:

    • 2.4GHZ --> Min 3. Max 12.
    •  5GHz --> Min 3. Max 12.

    But it seems it doesn't change anything for the wifi range.

    What am i missing ? Are there any options that could resolve my problem?

     

    I hope i have explained my problem as clearly as possible.

    Thank you!
    Regards.

    Can you see what the transmit power on each band is for that AP on the dashboard?

    The front page should list all of the access points and their current transmit power...
