# usteer
|
|
|
|
usteer is a client steering daemon written for OpenWrt.
|
|
|
|
Its goal is to optimize roaming behavior of wireless clients (STAs) in a ESS consisting of multiple BSS / APs.
|
|
|
|
## Functions
|
|
|
|
- Synchronization of Neighbor Reports between multiple APs
|
|
- Policy-based decisions for probe- / association- / authentication requests received from STAs
|
|
- Requesting clients to roam to a different BSS based on SNR / signal-level
|
|
- Channel-load based client steering to different BSS
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
usteer is available from the OpenWrt packages feed and can be installed on devices running OpenWrt 21.02+ using opkg:
|
|
|
|
