AP Alive Check

AP alive check will check if the AP connection is still available. When this function is enabled, a check will be

done every 10 ms.

AP Candidate Threshold

After the “AP alive check” declares the current access point is no longer available, the surrounding access

points must have good enough connection qualities (SNR/Signal Strength) in order to be qualified as AP

candidates for association.

Roaming Threshold

Determines when to start looking for new AP candidates. If the current connection quality (SNR or Signal

Strength) is lower than the specified threshold, the ioLogik will start background scanning and look for

next-hop candidates.

Roaming Difference

Determines if roaming should be executed. After a background scan has been triggered, the roaming will

only occur if the AP candidate(s) provide a better (Roaming difference) connection quality than the current

connection. If multiple access points fulfill the criteria, the ioLogik will pick the best one to roam to.

Scan Channels

You can set up Scan channels for the APs among which this client is going to roam. There are three Scan

channels available.

Note that the Scan channels may need to be modified when the RF type is changed. (For example, channel

36 is not available in B, G, or B/G Mix mode.)
