Roaming between multiple wireless locations

There is none. It's a client limitation.

The same SSID. Leave the MAC addresses alone.

That's the way to do it. However, different clients on the network behave differently because 802.11 doesn't specify how to select access points when roaming.

But Google with 802.11k.

If you just set up the same SSID on all devices, your phone/laptop should attempt to connect to it without an issue with the same profile.

The MAC address of the access point shouldnt matter whatsoever if we're talking about basic 802.11a/b/g.

i got this working perfectly by setting up mac filtering on all access points (about 10) and changing the SSID to the same.

The next step is to make the connection connect to the signal with the strongest signal within the same distance....Seamless roaming

working then let me know i am very intersted

Don't use MAC filtering -- it's a waste of time that just tends to cause problems.

That's a function of your client software -- there's nothing you can do to improve it.

If u r thinking to use one laptop for only 3 hotspots then that is OK....but if u r want ur all client should able to move anywhere then u can use the new tech.device controller.

In this controller handles all ur AP's & creating own database of client info.in it so that the client can move any where without any distrubt....

No need for that -- just choose a wireless card with good software; e.g., Intel Pro Wireless, IBM/Lenovo Connection Manager.

depends if you need roaming with no disconects - eiteh rdoen at layer2 or 3 mobile ip is what Cisco call it.

Actually more complicated than that, depending on what you need; e.g.,
