Only thing annoying about NOT SETTING a preferred AP is that if the AP reboots, customers can hop over to a non-ideal AP.
Only bad thing about SETTING a preferred AP is that clients can't hop over to another AP if you need to take an AP offline for an extended period of time. If only the SM would periodically rescan when it's NOT connected to the preferred AP, and reconnect to the preferred AP.. but Cambium doesn't seem to be listening.
