Can an STA automatically switch to an access point with stronger signal strength in a smart Wi-Fi coverage network?

  • For an STA that has the capability of roaming aggressiveness, it automatically compares the signal strength among detected access points and switches to an access point with stronger signal strength.
  • For an STA that does not have the capability of roaming aggressiveness, if Huawei ONT like HG8245Q2 finds that the signal strength of the Wi-Fi device is poor, Huawei GPON ONT disconnects the Wi-Fi device from its current access point and the Wi-Fi device has to look for an access point with stronger signal strength.
The action of Wi-Fi roaming and switching is mainly dependent to the user's Wi-Fi terminal. Some Wi-Fi terminals will continuously attempt to connect to the access point from which they had been disconnected rather than looking for an access point with stronger signal strength. For these Wi-Fi terminals, contact the vendor to resolve the roaming and switching issues.
