Issue with roaming

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

Hi everyone, I have a router HAP Ax3 with 7.15.2 and CAP RBcAPGi-5acD2nD with 7.15.2 too. I have to use package “wifi qcom” to work CAP with HAP ax3.

I have a CAPMan enabled and configured. The problem is with roaming, in this moment my laptop is connected to CAP instead of the Router HAP ax3, when it is more near to router than to the CAP. If I stop laptop’s wifi and start, in this case, laptop connect to Router instead to CAP.

Can something be configured to make roaming work better?

My wifi config:

/interface wifi configuration
add channel.band=5ghz-ac country=Spain datapath.bridge=bridge disabled=no
mode=ap name=cfg5GHZ security.authentication-types=wpa2-psk,wpa3-psk
ssid=JUJUMAESIN-PLUS
add channel.band=2ghz-n country=Spain datapath.bridge=bridge disabled=no
mode=ap name=cfg2GHZ security.authentication-types=wpa2-psk,wpa3-psk
ssid=JUJUMAESIN
/interface wifi
set [ find default-name=wifi2 ] configuration=cfg2GHZ configuration.mode=ap
disabled=no name=wifi2GHZ
set [ find default-name=wifi1 ] configuration=cfg5GHZ configuration.mode=ap
disabled=no name=wifi5GHZ

/interface wifi capsman
set enabled=yes interfaces=bridge package-path=“” require-peer-certificate=no
upgrade-policy=none
/interface wifi provisioning
add action=create-dynamic-enabled disabled=no master-configuration=cfg2GHZ
supported-bands=2ghz-n
add action=create-dynamic-enabled disabled=no master-configuration=cfg5GHZ
supported-bands=5ghz-ac

You can add “fast transition”, which should make it more easy for clients to roam:

/interface wifi security
add authentication-types=wpa2-psk ft=yes ft-over-ds=yes name=JUJUMAESIN-SEC passphrase=[whatever you use]

What signal does the client have when connected to the CAP instead of the router?
Why did you choose two SSID’s?

Hi, thanks, I've applied "fast Transition" and works fine¡¡ Thank you.

I choose two SSID, one to 2Ghz and other to 5Ghz

Happy to hear, you can mark your topic as solved. Will probably give me some karma points :sunglasses:

Do not forget about steering… There are three standards that could be used to support roaming: 802.11r/k/v
