Client roaming problem

Thu Mar 28, 2019 4:28 pm

Hello,
could you help me with this problem?
I have problem with this situation. I built basic network with 4 AP's without roaming function.AP's have same SSID, password, everything setting is the same.
And I have device without wifi card, I bought small router from Mikrotik with this RouterOS v6.42.11.
It is possible set Mikrotik to automatic switching from AP to AP, if I say for example. Switch AP if is signal strength lower then -75db?
Thank you for every advice.

Did you try /interface wireless station-roaming enabled?
Station Roaming feature is available only for 802.11 wireless protocol and only for station modes. When RouterOS wireless client is connected to the AP using 802.11 wireless protocol it will periodically perform the background scan with specific time intervals. When the background scan will find an AP with better signal it will try to roam to that AP. The time intervals between the background scans will become shorter when the wireless signal becomes worse and the background scan interval will become longer when the wireless client signal will get better.
