Improve (manual?) roaming

Open No13 opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

Hello everyone,

I'm currently having some small issues with my ESP8266 based sensors at home. After rebooting an AP all the sensors will go and connect to the remaining AP which is pretty far away (-85 dBm). After the first AP has finished rebooting, all sensors stick to the one which is far away.

I would like to improve my code by scanning every now and then and connect to the strongest BSSID. If I'm not mistaken, this would be possible with Arduino SDK for the connect function has a fourth parameter, accepting a BSSID. In Sming I cannot seem to find this option.

Is there currently any reason why we won't accept a BSSID in our connection config? Should I try to add it myself? Is there a better solution which I'm missing?

Kind regards,

Eric van Zandvoort
