Collins,
Not yet since it is a new installation, but he was wondering if adding additional wireless routers with the same SSID close to the different areas where users are concentrated will improve the internet performance. My question is, if it improves performance, what is the reason behind the improvement?

If so then adding another wifi route with the same SSID on different channels should help reduce the problem. On Mon, Oct 15, 2012 at 9:14 AM, Stephen S.
