Update, trying to balance the Rx dbm's at the AP first, by decreasing
transmit power at the CPE. Noticed that one of the trouble CPEs was
connecting to another tower with same name SSID even the the signal was
10 dbm weaker. So I figured if all the CPEs were configured to lock to
the AP mac, they would transfer over to a new name for SSID. Ended up
doing a lot of driving for orphans. Not one of them accepted the new
name, all were set to "lock to AP" mac. I'm pretty sure with older
firmware this used to work, is this a bug?
Have tried airControl2 in the past, could not figure out how to add new
CPEs after initial install. Dude is much easier to use.

I have replaced APs and just named them the same with same security
and they just connect
I.E.: had rocket with Omni named SSID: radio WPA2: 1234
Added a new section, installed 4 APs at New top, named all APs SSID:
radio same WPA2
Turned off Omni AP
As each CPE connected to new AP
Login to CPE change SSID to New name for the radio
Once all CPEs gone, change name of AP to New name, they all reconnect
That's what I do too. If things are working well, you could also use
airControl2 to do it by batch, but you need to ensure that all the CPE
have reliable connections and are responding properly first, or
they'll get orphaned.
