Optimal signal levels 2.4/5 GHz for multiroom setup

Wed Jul 27, 2022 12:55 pm

Hi all, I have a Capsman network with 13 CAP AC APs, 8 of which are in dry-board rooms + 5 CAP XL in warehouse halls. I have set up 2.4 GHz and 5GHz channels manually, and was careful to set 2.4 GHz channels not to overlap.

The question is how to set signal levels? - currently I have set signal levels as following:

2.4 GHz: 3dbi
5 GHz: 6dbi

Do you think this is a good approach? Lowering signal levels to facilitate easier switch over from AP to AP?

The output power level of the access point is determined from the zone of its coverage, at the border of the zone should be -67 dB from the power depends on the size of the zone.
