We just completed this. As a rough estimate we doubled our density. We were roughly 4,000 SF per access point and we went to around 2,00 SF. Those are of course just rough estimates and the old "you should survey" applies to at least some buildings.

Just wondering for anyone out there who has done this before, do you have an approximate number (in percentage) with regards to # of additional APs in a mainly coverage-based design. Thanks in advance.
