wifi connection drops

We use Enterasys 3605 APs in our classrooms. Radio 1 is a/n on 5.0GHz and Radio 2 is g/n on 2.4 GHz. Our 3 SSIDs (wlan, wpa, n) are on both radios. Our users have iPads and Mac air laptops. Users report their wifi connection being dropped. A user will be connected to the wifi in one room ,and then when they go to a different room; their connection drops.

Do you have Auto Tx Power Ctrl (ATPC) enabled and configured on your APs?

No, I don't think this school district has money for surveys. Do you know of any free tools to check AP converage or conflicts? We pretty much have an AP in every classroom, bu the walls are thick concrete. An apple tech says we should turn off the g/n radio on every other AP.

Have you done any kind of survey to make sure there is a good enough signal along the path they are walking to keep a connection and perform a proper roam?
