Abstract:
An example of controlling a network of wireless access points (APs) to detect that a client device associated with the network is stationary in an AP-overlap area, and in response to the detection that the client device is stationary in the AP-overlap area, assigning one of the APs to be a preferred AP for the client device. The APs are to avoid connecting with any client devices that have been assigned another AP as a preferred AP. Thus, the stationary client device in the overlap area may be prevented from undesired roaming.

Claim (Index 18):
A non-transitory machine readable medium comprising instructions that are to, when executed by processing circuitry that controls one or more wireless access points (APs) of a network of APs, cause the processing circuitry to:\n detect that a client device associated with the network is stationary and in response:\n determine a set of AP-to-client signal-strength values; and \n compare a largest one of the AP-to-client signal-strength values (first value) to another one of the AP-to-client signal-strength values (second value) and test a result of the comparison against a threshold; \n in response to the result of the comparison satisfying the threshold, assign one of the APs to be a preferred AP for the client device; and \n cause each of the APs to avoid connecting with any client devices that have been assigned another AP as a preferred AP.
