Configuration Recommendations

→Set roaming RSSI trigger at -70 dBm

→Set minimum RSSI (kick threshold) at -80 dBm

→Hysteresis: 10 dBm (prevent ping-pong roaming)

→AP TX power: 20 dBm — keep consistent across APs

✓ 802.11r FT enabled — <50ms handoff

✓ 802.11k RRM enabled — clients get neighbour reports

✓ 802.11v BTM enabled — AP can steer clients

→No transition delay required
