6Ghz Roaming Problems

jlumby@eng.utoledo.edu — Sat, 20 Jan 2024 18:54:24 GMT

I am testing out a setup before permanent installation. I have 4x CW9166I-B access points, and 1x C9120AXP-B with an external outdoor antenna running on a Catalyst 9800-L Wireless Controller software version 17.13.1. When I am running only 2.4 and 5Ghz radios everything works as expected, and I can roam between access points dropping just one or two pings. When I enable the 6Ghz radios I drop a minimum of 4 pings, and often times far more as the laptop often times disassociates, and takes up to a minute to re-associate. Manually turning the wireless off and then back on connects things back up immediately. I only have one 6Ghz capable device to test with, it is an Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX210 160MHz running driver version 23.20.0.4 on Windows 11. I have run https://cway.cisco.com/wireless-config-analyzer/ and do not see anything potentially related to this issue. A debug trace on the client shows some interesting errors I cannot quite explain:

Under the configuration for the Intel wireless NIC is an option called "Roaming Aggressiveness" and, by default, it is set to 3.

I have now turned it up to the highest now (5) and unfortunately it did not
make a difference.

Thanks for finding that bug post. It is now the second error in this troubleshooting process where what looks like a major error is actually normal. Unfortunately now I have almost nothing that points to why 6Ghz roams so poorly in comparison to 5/2.4Ghz

Re: 6Ghz Roaming Problems

Haydn Andrews — Sun, 21 Jan 2024 21:26:29 GMT

Is the SSID WPA3 or WPA3 transition mode? If you can set it to WPA3 only and retest. Heard some stories of roaming issues in transition mode (especially if PSK)

Re: 6Ghz Roaming Problems

jlumby@eng.utoledo.edu — Sun, 21 Jan 2024 21:56:30 GMT

To eliminate as many variables as possible, I went full WPA3 and have even
tried turning off 2.4/5GHz radios on the SSID. It did not help.

Put more APs.

In addition, and after you complete all tests and put the APs into production, I would recommend you not to use the same SSID for all bands as roaming between bands require full re-auth so potentially leading devices to packet drops, specially if they use near-real-time apps like conferencing.

Looks like I will need to add more APs to this project. Seems crazy that 4 APs cannot cover 1300 sq ft.

That's why the recommended best practice is to perform a virtual WLAN survey or a physical one.

Radio transmission depend on the power used to feed the radios, but the transmited signal strength is reduced by any obstacle such as but not limited to office walls from different materials that absorb signal by Nth factor, croud, physical obstacles on the path from AP to clients, or even unwanted rebounds on the radio waves that redirect all energy to an unwanted direction, ...

With as well as 5Ghz works in the same environment, and this being my first 6GHz installation, I serious wonder if it is even worth it for the minor increase in performance.

Ah yes, cell sizes shrink with each iteration of our normal wifi standards. wifi 6e and 7 are up close and personal. whereas 802.11f/h is for the long haul, slow as you go.

It's not that much the difference in signal range from swapping from 5- to 6-GHz, but there are huge differences when it comes to client's adapters using 6-GHz band (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/catalyst-9100ax-access-points/ghz-unlicensed-spectrum-reg-wp.html#:~:text=The%20output%20power%20in%20the%206%20GHz%20band%20varies%20greatly%2C%20from%204%20to%2016%20dBm%2C%20depending%20on%20device%2C%20band%2C%20modulation%2C%20etc). Notice that there is a 4dBm reduction in the maximum TX power a client can use from 5- to 6-GHz, and then add the quality of the NIC and the maximum power that is allowed to be used from the manufacturer (Check this out from Intel https://fccid.io/PD9AX211D2L?utm_content=cmp-true)

Did someone do a wireless AP design?

Re: 6Ghz Roaming Problems

jlumby@eng.utoledo.edu — Tue, 23 Jan 2024 15:56:28 GMT

Those links were especially helpful. I had no idea about the lower power levels in the 6GHz band. I should have not relied so heavily on 5GHz experience.
