Enable or disable fast roaming
If your mesh network includes WiFi clients that must be able to roam from your router
to your satellite, or the other way around, enable fast roaming so that certain client
applications can quickly reassociate with the new mesh device.
Note: If you enable fast roaming, some legacy WiFi clients might not be able to connect
to router or satellite. If this situation occurs, disable fast roaming.
To enable or disable fast roaming:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
mesh network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings.
The Advanced Wireless Settings page displays.
5. Select or clear the Enable Fast Roaming check box.
By default, the check box is cleared, and fast roaming is disabled.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Generate a new backhaul password
The backhaul password is a security key that is used in WiFi communication between
the router and the satellite. You can generate a new backhaul password. After you
generate a new backhaul password, you must use the Sync button to build a new
backhaul connection so that the router and satellite can communicate with each other
using WiFi.
