Title: Wireless connection drop
Post by: softatlas on November 06, 2014, 07:55:54 AM
Hello all,

I've currently a serious problem with wireless network at one of my clients.

explanations:

I have 2 DAP-2360 connected to the switch Procurve 4204vl Dlink access point (20 x 100/1000 ports), an Active Directory server that acts as a DHCP server, a Linux Firewall pfsense.
The access points are configured in a single array with an unique SSID on two different channels.

problem:

After 1 or 2 hours of operations of access points, no new clients can connect and even customers who were already connected lose connectivity.
If I try to connect a cell phone, I get stuck on the message "getting IP address".
on PC and Laptop, I have a limited connection

my troubleshooting:

I checked that there is no interference Channel
I updated the firmware on the Switch
I tried to lower the signal strength
I delete the array and I create two SSIDs, one for each access point
  Nothing works

This is the type of error that I see in the log of access points:

Can you test the DAPs at a different location to see if the problem follows?

The SSID name on yours DAPs should be changed to something unique and different from your neighbors WiFi if you see similar names out there.

How many Wifi neighbors do you see? Be sure to use a channel not being used buy your neighbors.

Hello FurryNutz,

My SSID is different from "dlink". i think that it's the overlapping problem.
I will do the test with InSSIDer today and i will give you some news ASAP.
Thank you very much for your help
