What is Fast Roaming?

Fast roaming is a feature in Wi-Fi networks that allows a wireless client to roam seamlessly between different access points (APs) without experiencing a significant interruption in service. This is achieved by reducing the time it takes for a wireless client to switch from one AP to another.

Traditional Wi-Fi roaming involves a process called a full reassociation, where the wireless client disconnects from the current AP and searches for a new AP to connect to. This process can take several seconds, during which time the client loses its connection to the network.

With fast roaming, the wireless client can quickly and securely switch to a new AP without needing to perform a full reassociation. This is done by using pre-authentication and caching techniques, which allow the client to authenticate with a new AP before it actually connects to it.

Fast roaming is especially useful in environments where seamless mobility is critical, such as in enterprise networks, public hotspots, and Wi-Fi calling applications. It can improve the user experience by reducing latency and minimizing disruptions in network connectivity.

What is the application of fast roaming?

Fast roaming has various applications in Wi-Fi networks, particularly in environments where seamless mobility is crucial. Some common applications of fast roaming include:

1.Enterprise Networks: In large enterprise networks, fast roaming allows employees to move freely between different floors, buildings, or areas without losing connectivity. This is particularly useful in environments where real-time applications, such as voice and video, are used.

2.Public Hotspots: In public hotspots, fast roaming enables users to move between different access points without interruption. This is essential for applications such as video streaming and VoIP calls, which require stable and uninterrupted connections.

3.Wi-Fi Calling: In Wi-Fi calling applications, fast roaming allows users to switch seamlessly between Wi-Fi access points and cellular networks, without experiencing any disruption in the call. This is particularly important in areas with poor cellular coverage.

4.Hospitality: In hotels and resorts, fast roaming provides guests with seamless connectivity throughout the property, regardless of their location. This enhances the guest experience and enables hotel staff to provide personalized services.

Overall, fast roaming improves the user experience by providing seamless and uninterrupted connectivity, regardless of the user's location within the Wi-Fi network.
