Archer C7 WDS off C9
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I currently am using a C9 as my main (root) router with guest network enabled and am trying to bridge that guest network using the wds on a C7. I am not overly familiar with how wireless bridging works. Also, with the bridged network, there are many areas of my house where the two routers would overlap.
My question is that how exactly is the connection handled when someone connected to the guest network is in the overlap area between the C9 and C7? Will the devices connect to which ever is stronger? Also, if a device starts off near the C9 then moves to the fringes where the C9 cannot reach it but the C7 can, is there a handoff happening or is it basically disconnecting from the original connection then reconnecting to the new connection?
