Default wifi question

But they can't really "move that connection to the nearest / strongest
signal", it's down to the client to do that. All the mesh system can
do is *encourage* the client to change.

And in practice ( Android phone) does the connection move ?


According to Chris, yes.

I run 3 wifi networks in the house and switching is a pain at times. Was
wondering about MESH


I think that's the point, not so much coverage (but I think that's
improved as well, over straight access points) but that if you are
moving about a lot, it makes that more predictable. I think John Rumm
has installed a Mesh system with a customer and the customer is happy?
