Settings for WLAN roaming
Roaming refers to the nutrunner traveling from one access point to another using the same access data.
Roaming is used if the range of an access point is insufficient in an application or if it does not cover all
relevant areas. In this case, multiple
access points (with identical access data) increase the range and coverage.
In company networks such installations are often implemented using networks with a
central controller that manages the access points.
With the roaming function the Nexo travels between the individual access points without losing network
connection and having to reconnect. With the roaming function access points can also be changed fast-
er.

Element Description
Method Select the safety method:
– Uncoded
– WPA/WPA2 Personal
– WPA/WPA2 enterprise
WPA (WiFi Protected Access) is used to encrypt information. This ensures
that no other persons than those having the appropriate authorization can ac-
cess the network. If WPA2 is used, an individual code is assigned to each
user; if WPA is used, a pre-installed code is used for the users; in this case,
the same passphrase is assigned to each user. WPA2 has a higher safety
level than WPA.

back-up is depleted, the time has to be set again at the nutrunner before it
can connect to the network.
