Mikrotik may also do that. If I remember correctly a few years back, mikrotik had a feature to do this. I believe you would set a threshold signal on the AP's that if a client fell below that threshold they would be disconnected. Theory was if they were disconnected from a weak AP they would re-connect to the strongest AP. If DHCP was being handled at a central router, it should be almost seamless. That was the theory at least. I think this morphed into capsman at some point.

| We have a small agriculture “campus” where we need to connect about 6 APs back to the campus tower for “roaming” Wifi if that is a thing. Meaning the guy with a tablet is going to wander the grounds and need to switch APs automagically. In the past, we have just setup Mikrotik 2.4 APs at each spot, backhauled it to the main tower, and the customer had to pick the best AP. I know there are high $$ solutions but trying to do this on the cheap. How does UBNT Unifi do with something like this? Any better (still in the cheap range) solutions?
