Hello all,
I recently purchased a 3500Lv2 and installed Shibby's 1.28 MIPSR2-090 K26 USB AIO, and set it up as the repeater node onto a Linksys WRT54GL running Tomato 1.28, both set using the same SSID, same password, using WPA Personal + AES, and Access Point + WDS mode on both.

It seems to be working ok, but I've noticed that when my phone or laptop first makes a connection to the network near one router (let's call it A), and I walk away from it toward the second router (let's call it B), the signal fades and doesn't gain strength as I get closer to router B. I would have thought that the signal would get stronger whether I'm near one router or the other. While standing next to router B, if I disconnect the connection I originally made while standing near router A, and remake the connection to the SSID while standing near B, the new connection then is strong. The same happens in reverse: If make a new connection with my phone or laptop to the SSID while standing near B (strong signal), and walk over to the A router, the signal is weak, but gets strong only if I disconnect and reconnect while standing at A.

Why is there no seemlessness between the two routers? Is there a setting which I can change which will improve this situation?

Thanks for any thoughts.
