On the Cisco, you also have a choice between TPCv1 coverage optimal mode or
TPCv2 Interference Optimal. For dense deployments, you really want to be
using TPCv2.

Dorm design is an animal of itself and each school has its own set of
challenges based on
locations and policies. As much as I agree that 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz shouldn’t be
on separate SSIDs for main campus,
I have really changed my mind for dormitories. Those buildings are really micro

I am not a supporter of this. Mainly because I think Wi-Fi knowledge for
the end-user should be minimised. Users should just see the SSID and
connect; options to choose from should be minimized. The most important

Paul,
Similar to the concept that Jason mentioned earlier, I heard of a wireless
setup at an Educause conference a while back with separate SSIDs for 2.4
and 5. What helped them, unfortunately can't remember who it was, was
adding 'FAST' to the 5Ghz SSID name to help steer users to the 5Ghz band.
The challenge for FAST networks is when you don't have 5ghz dense enough to
cover everywhere.
What will happen is users will be walking and run into places where they drop
from 5Ghz. And they will manually connect to the 2.4Ghz SSID.
Without having the ability to tune which network is
At Drew we very recently moved away from multiple SSIDs for this purpose,
but we had 'drew' on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and '5drew' on just the 5GHz
range. I don't remember exactly, but when we initially set it up some
devices would connect in alphabetical order and preferred the 5drew network
