Thanks, I thought about moving AP2 to somewhere else.....but but but, when I am moving around while the iperf testing is still running, i do see that I am always conneted to the closest AP by verifying on the router page, and I can tell that speed is going down when I am moving away, and coming back to full when i am at another AP.
Look, IF the issue is it does not roam to another AP, I get it, 2 AP are too close. but I cam roam fine from AP to AP... the issue is it stuck on connectivity when I am at AP2..... and and and, does not happen all the time, i tried again last night and the night before, man, I did not have issues, aka cannot reproduce.....
my full time job is NETWORK ENGINEER, but on enterprise products, not on consumer equipments like this....LOL, I dont have the backend access to find out the root cause.....

Roaming, Ya, when in roam. Some devices may or may not "roam" well. When as you leave the stronger signal, the device may keep connected to the lower signal, even though a strong signal is near by.
Something I do for these devices, disable the wifi radio on the device. Move closer or near the AP2. Turn on the wifi radio on the device. The device should connect to the nearst AP now...
