Signal strength and speed fluctuating

[ctalsness]

I just installed a network with Cisco 12xx access points, and I am getting user complaints that their signal strength is fluctuating from very low to very high and the connection speed is also fluctuating from 54 Mbps, to 11 Mbps, to 1 Mbps and so on. I have seen this happen in other wireless installs with other access points, It has just been a while since this has happend and I can't remember what the cause or the fix was. Any Ideas?

What is the data rates that are configured to basic on the AP radio? Try setting the data rates to throughput setting. This should provide a consistent performance. For information on configuring the radio data rates read the document available at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a0080606d4a.html#wp1101903
