TO enable Roaming feature i must add a controller to enable this feature ?

what is AP models that support Roaming ?

It's best to use a WLC since it would be a central management.  These appliances are know to work well when the environment is implemented properly. That being said, depending on the code your running on the WLC, that will tell you what AP's are supported on that platform.  You can see this from the matrix:

The AP's that I would look at now are the following:

1702

1832

1850

2702

3702

The 1832 and 1850 are new and support Mobility Express. Mobility Express means that you have a controller built in the AP and this setup can support up to 25 access points. If you have more that 25, then you need an appliance.
