[asterisk-users] [OT] wi-fi ip phone scenario

[Alban]

Yes, same channel and same ESSID for all AP's.
Are you connecting each AP to the LAN? Or only one connected, and the others 
as relay?

With WDS, you have to keep same channel and ESSID for a good roaming.
If connected to the lan, doing it worked really good for me, roaming was 
working in the same way as with WDS (no latency).
