[asterisk-users] Wifi - Managed access points...

Hope you don't mind I jump in here. I am interested in DECT's handover
of live calls. My question is, does the IP address on the phone change
when moving from on access point to another?

Luis,

Like Ron, I have tested deploying several different handsets and have
been disappointed. I am currently testing a deployment with a DECT
system by Aastra that uses multiple access points the talk SIP to
Asterisk and DECT to the handset. Being based on DECT they have good
battery life and handover of live calls between points is a key feature.
Pricing is along the same as what I would pay for High end access points
and good handsets. There are systems like this coming out from Aastra,
Snom, Polycom/Kirk and probably some others. If I were going to deploy
the setup you are talking about I would check this option out before
jumping solely on wifi. If you want contact me off list and I'd be happy
to visit in more detail.
