Home\Office: suggested model
Good morning 300 quare meters, it is home and office. Today the WiFi coverage is provided by 3 AP, different brand, different technology, the signal is good everywhere, but it is not the same networ...

The hand-over between two AP does typically take a fraction of a second, almost not audible during a VoIP call. In my understanding, 802.11r does only help where EAP, RADIUS & Co. are involved, as these hand-overs typically take several seconds.

Many thanks for your suggestions.
"on the paper" 3x WAC505 seem to be a good solution, but there is something that I need to drill down a bit more.
Talking about roaming, what is the difference when managing theese 3 AP let me say.... standalone and with insight?
I am not interested in a product that runs on some WLC, like I have at work ( Cisco )

Moreover... you (and all the communities) says that at the end of the story, the roaming depends on clients. I can not understand why:
At the moment I have 3 AP: ADB, tp-link and Netgear, same SSID, same security, different channels
If I am on the ADB and move in the direction of the Netgear, then very quickly the client switch to the Netgear, but if I am on the tp-link, then the client does not leave the tp-link until the signal is so low that the connection drops.
I switched off the Netgear, I swapped the position of Netgear and tp-link... nothing changes.
Seems that my clients love the tp-link.
