Why aren't you guys using a controller based network? Fixes all of apples roaming issues!
Still very frustrating, I tell clients they are sticky devices and want to "stick" to the AP as long as possible. I tell clients either they get androids or you get a network that unsticks the phone and pulls it to the closest access point.
Ruckus of course works well and Luxuls top of the Line controller AP kit works very very well with apple devices
Isn't that sort of a moot point here? The point is not to spend more money to get the iOS devices to work, but for the iOS devices to not lock on. Yes it may fix it, but its already a challenge in some instances selling even a router. "This one I bought at Best Buy works great, I see no reason to spend more". I will refuse to put a large system on such routers, but I cannot tell a client to get a Android to get his phone to jump. Well, I can, but it just won't happen. I do tell clients up front with iPhones that contact me about wifi issues that the iPhones are known to have this issue. Haven't had one yet willing to spend the money on a more expensive fix when I inform them of this. They seem to think their iPhones are indestructible gods and could not possibly be the issue, it MUST be the network. The problem is the iPhones.
