Utilize Transmission Opportunity with OFDMA

OFDMA has been used in LTE for many years, and is now available in 802.11ax for multi-user mode.

Traditionally with OFDM, each frame is transmitted across the entire channel width. With low-rate transmission still using the whole channel, it brings latency and jitter to others and lower the overall efficiency.

OFDMA splits a single transmission into groups of subcarriers, and each subcarrier can be used by different client. With multiple clients transmitting simultaneously in the same channel, it improves efficiency of every single transmission opportunity and thus increases the wireless experiences in high density environment.

Mobile Device Management

Station List and Allow/Block List

The VigorAP records associated devices with signal strength, airtime, link rate, data usage, etc. Network admin can track clients connectivity and activities history on this single panel. If spotting suspicious activities, allow/block policies can also be made right away by MAC or device type.

Nearby Station Analytics

The VigorAP tracks MAC addresses from both associated and non-associated devices with signal strength. This information could help retails and hospitality customers to understand visitor behaviors, and to optimize their business with opening hours/marketing campaigns accordingly.

AP-assisted Roaming

Making Transmission Effective
Disassociate the Wireless clients who are out of the effective transmission range defined by custom Basic Rate or/and RSSI threshold, and force them to pick up another access point with a stronger signal.

Resource Saving
Proactively kick out the clients with a low basic rate or low RSSI can prevent the access points trying to do ineffective transmission but saving the airtime, which will results in better WLAN experience for all.

No Controller Required
Assisted Roaming is a feature built in all Vigor Access Points and selected Wireless routers. They operate without a wireless controller, providing an ideal solution for simple network deployment.

Stronger Signal Guaranteed
By using the “Minimum RSSI with Adjacent AP” option, the AP/Router on the same local subnet will exchange client information with each other, providing the choice to disassociate the client only when other AP detecting a stronger signal. Thus to keep the client stayed when there is no other AP nearby.
