Can I clarify something when using controllers?

Right now, I'm romaing around this big house between the access points. I keep pressing a button and seeing the fb come into my CF project. At some point, when I drop one WAP and hit another (same SSID, no controller), I lose feedback for a couple of seconds but it seems to be reliably coming back without causing the connection to really break between CF and the processor. If I have a controller-managed WAPs, and good coverage, that couple-second hiccup should be eliminated, correct? The controller sees that one WAP has a better signal strength to the iPad than another and seamlessly hands them off?


Thanks, Heath

The Pakedge Virtual Cell system appears to be a re-branded Meru system. You may look into pricing a Meru system directly, and compare it to the price of the Pakedge.

Side note: Not that I'm recommending it to anyone, but Ubiquiti is claiming "seamless hand-off" capabilities in the next firmware release for their WAPs, and it doesn't require a controller to manage them. Might be something to keep an eye on, since it will be at a significantly lower price-point than other managed wireless systems.

Can someone recommend WAPs / controllers for a 4-WAP system, specifically some that will hand off connections between WAPs without hiccuping iPads? I'd like to work with something that I can set up myself (I can only learn so much Cisco ios before I forget it). I've presented Access and the client won't bite on their system.

Currently I have Netgear WNDAP 360 WAPs and while they seem to work very well standing still, they don't hand off worth a crap.

Thanks, Heath
