Firmware Version: 1.3.0

I would like to enable "Fast Roaming" 802.11r on my network, however I have devices (a Printer, IoT devices, some connected white-goods) that won't play nice and do not like it.

 

However, I already have those carved off into a different SSID. In fact, the only devices that move around my house, and that I therefore care about Fast Roaming (mobile phones, laptops) I connect to an MLO SSID already to support Multi-Link Operation for them.

 

My feature request, therefore, is for it to be possible to enable Fast Roaming on my MLO SSID, whilst having it disabled on other SSIDs.

 

Alternatively (same outcome) an ability to enable Fast Roaming on all SSIDs *apart from* and IoT specific SSID.

 

Currently, it is a global setting for the entire network and all SSIDs. Please change this.

 

Summary "Allow Fast Roaming to be enabled on a per SSID basis" or, if that is hard, "Allow Fast Roaming to be enable only for MLO SSID" / "Allow Fast Roaming to be disabled on an IoT SSID".
