Fast / seamless roaming through ethernet with OpenWRT

I Agree - basic (non-FT) roaming is already quite fast (except when using 802.1X/EAP). So unless you are walking around your house while in a Zoom/Teams session I would suggest to stick to the KISS principle and not enable 802.11r

These reports

are mentioning following delays (when I interpret them correctly)

  • roaming delay non-FT 150ms (PSK)
  • roaming delay non-FT 500ms+ (EAP)
  • roaming delay FT 16-71ms
