[Asterisk-Users] WiFi phones and WDS (Wireless Distribution System)

[Chuck Bunn]

Hi,

I use the Zyxel  P-2000W v2 wireless VOIP phones with Zyxel G-1000 
access points and the hand off calls fairly smoothly using a port for 
the hand off and using WEP security (the Zyxel is not capable of WPA 
security  yet). I  understand that people have problems with some 
manufactures access points not handling the hand off very well due to 
latency issues. I can not remember the article but I believe Network 
World or a similar rag did hand off tests and found the Zyxel to be one 
of the best at the time.

Thanks
