<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>
I have 1 WLAN controller 2112 and 10 APs 1242G with external antennas and I’m
facing a problem in the coverage, as while standing directly under any AP
(about 4 meters far) without any obstacles in-between the signal received at
the hand held device is good and when moving little a bit away the signal
decreases to fair and poor while by using a cheap stand alone Linksys AP in the
same place the signal in the hand held is excellent which is normal due to the
small distance.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>So
anyone has any reasons or solution for this situation ?, maybe there are some
settings in the controller can make the AP optimized for coverage distance or
something like this, please advise.<o:p></o:p></p>
