Not smart to have one "very strong wifi" indoors...

http://routerboard.com/RB952Ui-5ac2nD is much better than hAP lite as it has 2,4 and 5 GHz radios so it means better coverage and weaker signal.

Agree with jarda, not a great idea to have one 'very strong' AP, kewlgai's idea (multiple APs with CAPsMAN) is better. Locate the APs to get full coverage while distributing the users as evenly as you can across them without having to crank the power up too high. Maybe consider dual-band radios as you'll get better performance with less interference for clients capable of using 5GHz too.

Thank you all for your advice, I have bought 951ui and metal 2 shpn for my two offices. I configured them as dchp client because i have dhcp server running on my cisco router already. Since then i have been enjoying good wireless browsing but today i discovered that every systems connected to metal 2 wifi were disconnected and if connected again it still keeps disconnected. I have checked the router settings and there is nothing changed from my initial settings. So kindly help me on possible solution to this problem.

thanks and regards,
Noaha.

did you perform an upgrade of the AP recently? If so could you check that the wireless package is current and active. Also check the config as some wireless setup may have been changed from the upgrade.

put 3 hAP lite or not, or 3 wAP, setup capsman on another router ex. rb3011. Bingo!

good idea, just to complement:

cheap option: 3 hAP lite as accesspoints and another hap lite as a bridge/router and capsman controller (with wlan disabled) for 30 mbps internet connection max

medium option: 3 hAP ac lite as accesspoints and hEX as a bridge/router and capsman controller for 50 mbps internet connection max

premium option: 3 wAP ac as accesspoints and rb3011 as a bridge/router and capsman controller for 100-150 mbps internet connection max

http://routerboard.com/RB952Ui-5ac2nD is much better than hAP lite as it has 2,4 and 5 GHz radios so it means better coverage and weaker signal.
i have tested and compared hAP lite vs hAP ac lite and i think the difference between this 2 is not as dramatic, i think the hAP lite is a very very good device specially taking in count the cheap cost

technically the 2,4ghz radio, is the same but the hAP lite shows a little less tx power and rx sensitivity, about 1-2 dbm in both ways

technically the cpu, is the same but the hAP lite has 20% less performance because use ddr1, while hAP ac lite use ddr2

32mb of ram on hAP lite is enough for most configurations

the biggest plus of hAP ac lite is the second radio, is a single chain 5ghz radio, with good tx power to complement the 2.4ghz radio

Hap lite is able to sustain 100mbit transfers between the wifi and ethernet. It has the best price / effect ratio of all mikrotik devices.
