Roaming/Handoff between AC1200 and WNDAP360
We have a Wifi network in the 5GHz range with a single WNDAP360. We use the ascom I62 WLAN Phones with good results. Now we had to extend the coverage of the 5GHz network. Sine we can't place a second WNDAP360 (due to missing network cables) we descided to use a range extender AC1200 for this. This works fine, with the exception of the roaming/handoff. When a handover occurs from the AC1200 to the WNDAP360 or vice versa, then we have a 3-5 second "silence" on the phone. Most of the time it then continues to work, but sometimes the VOIP connection drops completely. What do I have as options to provide seamless roaming/handoff without gap in the audio? Would a second WNDAP360 configured as repeater improve the situation?
