Roaming Guidelines (SpaceLink™ Gateways or APs)
•
A 802.11b PC Card can only roam between 802.11b SpaceLink Home
Gateways or Access Points.
•
All the SpaceLink Home Gateways or Access Points must have the
same SSID.
•
All computers with SpaceLink PC card or CF card adapters must have
the same SSID as the Home Gateways or Access Points that they will
roam between.
•
If WEP encryption is enabled, then all the SpaceLink Home Gateways
or Access Points and client adapters must use the same encryption level
and WEP Key(s) to communicate.
•
The SpaceLink Home Gateways' or Access Points' cells must overlap
to ensure that there are no gaps in coverage and to ensure that the roaming
client will always have a connection available.
•
The SpaceLink Home Gateways or Access Points that use the same
Channel should be installed as far away from each other as possible to
reduce potential interference.
•
It is strongly recommended that you perform a site survey using the
utility provided with the SpaceLink PC card or CF card to determine
the best location for each the SpaceLink Home Gateway or Access Points
in the facility.
