Now there is a significant delay when moving to a part of the house where the AP I was using has a weak signal. My wife spends a lot of time in zoom meetings and sometimes needs to change location to during meetings, so The original 802.11r <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11r-2008> has a flawed protocol. I'm not sure if 802.11r has been disabled or changed in some way that my devices don't support. There is a site that collects vendor responses to the 802.11r problems, but my AP vendor had not responded last time I checked. < https://github.com/WLAN-Pi/profiler> can check devices for 802.11r support -- George N.
