If you support game consoles/handhelds on wifi (eg, dorms), then you may need to avoid setting 12Mbps minimum for the 2.4GHz radio. IIRC, the Wii, and DS/3DSx models require 1 & 2Mbps support (though, I've seen some connect without it). I recently ran into an issue where a small subset of Xbox 360/One and PS3s also wouldn't associate unless both 1-2Mbps are enabled. Very strange, that one...
From: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/wfc/en_na/ds/wrSetupHelp.jsp Transmission Rate: The Nintendo DS has a transmission rate of 1 to 2 mbps (megabits per second). Most routers transmit at a much higher rate, but are able to adjust for devices that transmit at a slower rate. Your router may have this as a setting that might need to be adjusted.

Troublesome otherwise. There is also a mid-way setting of 12Mbps which is the level I tested. Unfortunately, this is a client-based setting. VERY annoying. Anyone?

I set the Min Basic Rate (AP > Radio > Advanced) to 24Mbps. This helps deal with clients associating/disassociating in high density deployments. Jeff >>> We have Enterasys 4110 controllers running 8.31 software and about 400 AP, mostly 3620 and 3710. Is there any way to control how "sticky" a client device will be to a particular AP? I realize that AP re-association can be disruptive and you don't want that happening too much. I do notice though that in some locations where we are getting user complaints about wifi performance, a client device that wanders around will stay associated with a distant AP with a weak signal much longer than I would like it to, rather than re-associating with a much closer and stronger AP. Is there any way to set a minimum signal-strength for association? Better yet would be a delta-threshold; i.e. if the AP-2 signal is 5-db better than AP-1, then re-associate.
