802.11r on 1142

[jkay18041]

Hello, I have a few 1142 APs (not the LAP) and have some phones that are having issues roaming. They seem to wait until there is basically no signal before switching APs. Both APs are setup the same and are on different channels. Same security, SSID ect....I read that the phones we have support 802.11r and from what I read so does the 1142 access port. However every model I see to set it up requires a Controller. Is there a way to set it up for the Stand Along APs?

Thank you

I think 802.11r requires a controller.  As for the client, it all depends on the client and the firmware running on.  Have a look at this: BYOD Device Classification Guide

What security mechanism you use ?

I would suggest WPA2-PSK with AES encryption and test this.
