SSID not broadcasting properly

[syedimteyazahmad]

Hi Team,

We have 2800 APs with FRA enabled as auto. We are seeing all SSIDs not broadcasting on all APs all time. Its intermittent. Because of that user connect with AP which is far instead of nearby AP.

Any specific reason for that.

We have AP group creation where we have call all WLAN.

Hi,

Clinet decide To join which AP and/or which radio not AP or WLC. If the wireless client wants to associate to the furthest AP then there's nothing you can do.

There are ways to to minimize it..1. your wireless clients are running the latest drivers.

2. On the AP-side, you could also try to disable the low-speed data rates (disable 802.11b, make 18 Mbps as Mandatory and the rest are Supported).

Regards

Hi @Sandeep Choudhary 

Thanks for reply.

Issue here is sometime AP broadcast some SSID and some time its not broadcasting. Connection of client to any AP, we are fine it depend on client adapter, but AP should broadcast all SSID configured in that AP group

Please check if the AP advertise the SSID's or not 

On WLC check below 

show ap wlan 802.11a "AP NAME"

show ap wlan 802.11b "AP NAME"

this will show you Site  Name and WLAN ID numbers which advertise via AP 

Thanks

when you are not seeing the SSID on client machine that time can you check the AP broadcast SSID or not via same command,
