Replacing 105's with 325's a floor at a time in a 5 story building. Should coverage be worse?

    We have a 5 story hospital building with all 105's. We replaced 1 floor with 205's and the heatmaps in visual RF are even better looking coverage than before; however we started replacing the rest of the floors with 325's, and the coverage looks worse than it did with 105's in Airwave's VisualRF.

     

    Do I need to configure something differently on the 325's? I was under the impression that I should see even better coverage overall.

    VisualRF is a visualization of coverage.  To see how many APs the 325 actually sees, type "show ap arm state ap-name <name of ap>" on the controller's commandline.
