does it have to be in an open area for band steering as well?
we have an AP in each classroom with 2.4 and 5Ghz radios and clients. and i think some of the 2.4 clients are slowing things down and causing issues
Ok, thanks for all this helpful information. I just noticed some of our schools are in load groups for some reason. I am going to create a group for band steering, to help the mirroring to apple tvs improve.
You are right - it make no sense to enable load group to a whole building.
The client must be in the range of all APs from the same load group.
One valid option would be to use it for example in an auditorium or a gymnasium if you've a big event and use a punch of APs in this area to take care of the high amount of visitors/clients.
