| - | \\ | + | There are two criteria for the roaming assistant: |
| + | |||
| + | >1) RSSI [ARM and MIPS hardware]\\ 2) idle rate of your client (default rate for checking < 2 Kbps) [only ARM hardware] | ||
| + | |||
| + | You can test that for example: if your client constantly is downloading something it will not be kicked off your wireless lan, even if the RSSI criteria is crossed. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If the default idle rate (hidden option for ARM branch only) is too low for you, it can be adjust: | ||
| + | |||
| + | Example - change idle limit from 2 (default) to 200 Kbps: | ||

There is little risk in testing a lower number. This can be useful to reduce network traffic, or for security purposes. | This sets the maximum number of clients allowed on the WiFi network.
