Signal Strength Optimization?

Thu Apr 24, 2014 4:43 am

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to filter people who has very weak signal strength? I understand there's a away to do it like this under AP Access Rule -60..-50

but I'm looking for it to not to broadcast it's SSID to those people who has very weak Signals? Is this possible?

The SSID is just a part of a management frame that you send over the air. There is no control over who gets it.
You could lower your tx power. That will prevent some device which is far away to pick up this frame, but that is it.

Thanks for your clarification, I couldn't find much either.
