Multiple WiFi routers, 1 SSID.

  • @MikHo cool. Even though you may not consider it true roaming its the best most can do without really expensive APs. Your right ideal coverage without considerable overlap is imperative.

  • On some older laptops they only recognize certain channels.

  • I tried the channel 1,6,11 thingy last weekend and it worked like a charm! In my test setup I had 3 routers from 2 different brands setup. My phone and laptop both recognized the 3 routers as 1 AP and connected without a problem. When walking around, my phone sometimes disconnected for a brief period between connecting to a new route, but my laptop never showed any forms of disconnecting.
    When using streaming video/audio or Skype you may experience a small hiccup when switching between routers, but I was impressed. Never imagined such a simple trick would work so well

    Thanks LET, for broading my knowledge once again!

    Usually they go to channel 11.

  • Great! If you have a blackberry, make sure to enable "allow inter-access point handover". Other phones may have the same setting.

    Have you thought about buying products from a company that specialises in what your trying to achieve?

    Haven't found this option yet on my Android, but that's for the tip!
