Note that the planning tool provides only default placement and shows the coverage area
for each access point.
6. Move the access points to optimize coverage in desired areas and avoid coverage in
unwanted areas based on the floor plan.
Colored circles around the access point symbols indicate the expected approximate
coverage of the individual access point.
The color of the circle represents the expected
quality of the signal strength: a darker color indicates signal overlap with nearby access
points.
Note: A red color indicates the strongest coverage area: better than –50 dBm
RSSI; an orange color better than -60 dBm; a yellow color better than
–70 dBm; and so on.
Moderate overlap is required for seamless roaming. No overlap will lead to
disconnections and dead spots.
You can click an access point icon and drag it to manually reposition it to see how the
new location would af

repositioning changes.
