AP based on the coverage requirement. The AP scans its neighborhood to determine the
RF environment to minimize neighboring AP interference, leakage across floors, and
coverage holes. For information about how to configure auto transmission power,

When configuring self healing, NETGEAR recommends the following:
Configure self healing wait time to a value greater than access point reboot time, usually
•
a minute. This allows for fluctuations in the power of nearby access points when access
points are rebooted.
The number of neighbors to participate in healing should not be very large (3-4 usually
•
suffices in most deployments). This avoids too many access points increasing power for a
single failed access point.
