Chapter 1 - Introduction
Roaming Guidelines
• An 802.11b PC Card can only roam between 802.11b Access Points.
• All SpaceLink Access Points must have the same SSID.
• All computers with SpaceLinkPC card or CF card adapters must have
the same SSID as the Access Points that they will roam between.
• If WEP encryption is enabled, then all SpaceLink Access Points and
client adapters must use the same encryption level and WEP Key(s) to
communicate.
• The SpaceLink 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.
• SpaceLink 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 SpaceLinkPC card or CF card to determine the
best location for each SpaceLink 802.11g Access Point in the facility.
