4.4. Fast Handover Settings
On a wireless network with multiple access points, as a wireless client moves from one area to another, the RSSI (wireless
signal strength) may drop to a less than optimal level. If enabled, Fast Hanover will detect the condition and send a disassocia-
tion request to the wireless client, allowing the client to search for another access point with a stronger signal.
