RBKE963 Roaming - how it works?-
How the roaming works on this models? It seems that for whatever reason any device just connects to random satellite, not usually the closest one and most times the least close to it and some times...

Its based of the devices own internal roaming protocols. Its not something the routers manages. Its just the phone/tablets/computers own roaming setup that manages it and decides when it should be connected to a router or satellite. Its not always in the best interest to roam, even if a device is closer because the device might not need the extra bandwidth or speed

Thank you.
Sounds completely logic.
I thought it could be something similar than Asus Mesh solutions, that allows you to manage roaming option or to direct any specific devices to any specific satellite.
Best regards
