Router 5 connects to router 4 to router 3, router 2 and main router. I presume the laptop or any device sends out the data and it is picked up by whichever dd-wrt device has the strongest signal first. Other than that with dd-wrt you can have the routers set up as APs and repeaters which are all named the same and on the same channel. I think most wifi devices now when signal is none existent and very low will search for an alternative network, as long as one is unprotected or the network has been used previously so it will not require manual input of any security code. Very old topic that i would really love to see implemented, can such feature be implemented? Kick clients below specific signal level? This was posted seveeral years ago, has anyone found a solution? ![]() ![]() Posted: Wed 16:11 Post subject: Sticky clients does my question make sense? If not, please tell me why. By doing so, it will surely find AP2 to have slightly better signal strength and will necessarily have to connect to that instead, since AP1 will refuse association if signal is below the threshold. I want AP1 to force client disconnection so it tries to associate again. Suppose I have client1 connected to AP1 and its signal goes down, say, to a hypothetical "1". Since I can't do anything on the client's side, I'd like to "force" disconnections on low signal strength FROM the AP. In my setup, when a client has a very low signal strength from 1 AP then almost surely it's close enough to another AP with a slightly stronger signal. On one hand that's good for maximum coverage on a per-AP basis but it's bad for roaming. I'm asking this because some client drivers/supplicants are not necessarily "aggressive" enough to roam from one AP to another so they stay connected "as much as they can" until signal strength is practically nil and a timeout has been reached. ![]() Posted: Thu 7:46 Post subject: DD-WRT roaming hack: disconnect clients with low RF signalĬan I configure DD-WRT to disconnect/deassociate automatically any client whose signal drops below an administrator-defined threshold (eg.
