iPad and a roaming wifi network

I just had a similar problem

Home network with two Wireless Access Points (Both TP-Link routers), both with same SSID and password, both using WPA2-PSK with AES encryption. Moving from one end of the house to the other would mean my iPad would stay locked to the very weak signal of the first access point. Google Nexus seemed better at switching access points.

I appear to have fixed this by manually setting the channel number of the two routers to two different numbers, rather than leaving them as auto. I picked two channels at random - in my case 5 and 7. I guess thatthey were on the same channel and either interfering or perhaps this was something to do with the way the iPad identifies different access points. Anyway, fingers crossed this now works okay.

yes there is WIFI roaming if you have several APs with the same authentication method login and SSID.

And it doesn't work good, even using eap-leap and eap-fast (using an MDM you can use those options)

This article has a little discussion about moving between access points -

What is a roaming WiFi network?

If you have not done so, you may want to post this question also in the "iPad in the Enterprise" section of these discussion boards.

I do not know a whole lot about Dlink access points.. Make sure the NAT and any firewalls or rules are turned off on the 2nd access point.
