Older versions of linux used:
iwconfig dev sens -80
To set the roam sensitivity, after the signal dropped below the set threshold, the card/adapter would initiate a scan looking for another AP to roam to.
I'm being told that iwconfig has been obsoleted in favor of using IW for cards that use mac/cfg80211.
This answer from Grawity seems to confirm that: iwconfig command not showing abgn
The IW man page isn't really of any help: https://linux.die.net/man/8/iw
This wiki has alot of information, but nothing on sensitivity: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/documentation/iw
It's rare that I have to do this at all, but every once and a while I get sticky linux clients trying to hold on to an AP long after they should have roamed. I prefer installing Atheros based wireless cards if that makes any difference.
So the question comes down to: Does anyone know of any way to perform some CLI wizardry to set the "roam agressivness" with iw from the command prompt?
Thanks in advance!
