    Hi everyone,

     

    I run a small office with only 2 x WAPs.  Having come from Merkai  finding it interesting. 

     

    I am still working out where to find some decent documentation on setup and config and tweaks etc.  Having hit and miss with speeds and clients connecting to incorrect AP, not choosing the closer one.

     

    Thanks and appreciate any tips and help.

    There is numerous reasons as to why you are seeing the issues you are. Ultimately it is the clients decision as to which AP it will connect to. Given it is only 2x APs, how are these deployed and what is the current RF settings?
