(2) AP's in close proximity on same Channel (11). Would this create any problems?

Hello

I have several user's that are close to one of the ap's that keep dropping.

I see no reports of user's connecting to the other AP having any issues?

Can there be an issue with APs on the same channel, yes and no. You don't have enough info to allow us to help. What devices are having issues, does others have issues, what wireless aps and code are you running, what other troubleshooting have you done?

Thank you for the response.

The devices having troubles are laptops. So far there are only (3) laptops, all in the same room,

intermittently being dropped. There is an AP in this same room and on Ch 11.

No alarms on this AP.

Signal strength is dynamically set to 5*

This Ap has (7) clients currently attached. Only (3) of the (7) appear to have issues.

There are several AP's in the are. The one that appears to be closest is also on Ch11 and power dynamically set to 5*. There are (4) clients on this AP and I have not received any problems reported with clients attached to that AP.

There have been sporadic/intermittent problems Enterprise wide recently, just since last week.

We have been looking at Wireless drivers on the laptops.
