asterisk users - Nov 2006 - wip5000 roaming

Good day all

I cant get my WIP 5000 to roam 100%

I have 2 access points, different SSI's

I make a config1 and config2 on the phone, each for the different SSID's(A
&
B)

Im standing next to A and I walk to B, but.the phone does not want to change
its signal to B, it still keeps the bad signal from A

If I power A down, it will switch to B, if I switch A back on and go stand
next to it, it will still keep B's signal

We got some wireless specialist's in and they set up WDS for us, in other
words, you add 1 SSID for both access point

IT works for windows, but not for the phone!

Can anyone help, or give a bit more explanation on the roaming settings on
the webconfig

 

Try RxLevel (-103~0) 

PreRoaming Enable RxLevel (-103~0) 

Try Over TxError Count (0~10000) 

Try Over RxError Count (0~10000)

Level Diff Higher Than Curr Site (0~255) 

Use Refresh PreRoaming 

Enable PreRoaming On Association 

PreRoaming Mode 

PreRoaming Refresh Interval (0:Disable, 0~3600) 

 

 

Thanks

Altus

Disable WDS but set all the AP to the same channel and same SSID and then
make sure they are connected to the same LAN (IE: no NAT on the AP). Are you
using encryption?

Something like:

Try RxLevel -60
PreRoaming Enable RxLevel -75
Try over TxErrcnt 15
Try Over RxError Count 10

Play with the PreRoaming mode, see if it does help? It should however you
could notice a drop in battery life.

Would be a good place to start with your settings, adjust from there.  I
would like to hear your results with these phones, is everything working
great besides the roaming?
