| Level | Behavior | |-------|-----------| | | Roam only when the current signal is very poor. High “stickiness” — minimizes unnecessary switches but risks staying on a bad connection. | | Low (2) | Roam when signal degrades moderately. Good for stationary or low-mobility devices. | | Medium (3) | Balanced approach — default on many devices. Roams when signal drops to a reasonable level. | | High (4) | Roams quickly when a better AP is detected. Best for fast-moving devices (walking through an office). | | Highest (5) | Very aggressive — roams with even slight signal differences. Can cause “ping-ponging” (constant switching between APs). |
Roaming Aggressiveness a setting for your Wi-Fi adapter that determines how "eager" your device is to switch from its current wireless access point (AP) to a nearby one with a stronger signal what is roaming aggressiveness in wifi
