AP control and resource relocation

Hi Peplink team,

Do pepwave have AI solutions for AP control&resource relocation?(for example: adjust AP power/channel automatically based on the clients connected/ existing wifi channels)

Thanks

Hello Jeremy,

The channel for our AP will adjust, if you have not locked it down to one specific channel, but it isn’t based on the clients connecting. You can set a time to have the channel detect change.

The Output Power setting can be changed to Dynamic: Auto. This will change the output as needed, not just adjusting at a specific time of the day.

What is everyone’s thoughts on the time for the auto channel update, and the “wait until no active client” checkbox. If we wait for no client, our system will never update because there are devices left on all the time. You’d be surprised how many people forget and leave their phones at work. If we use the default midnight for update, then some offending wifi stations competing for bandwidth might not be active.

if the system does an auto channel update during the day, and chooses to change its channel, will the clients drop connection?

What are the merits of choosing dynamic/auto power vs fixed max?
