VigorAP 906 is 11ax wall-mount/desktop wireless access point with a 5-port LAN switch. With wire-liked link rate up to 2402 Mbps in 5GHz band and up to 574 Mbps in 2.4GHz band, it's suitable for high density environments. It can be cloud-managed by VigorACS, and also act as the mesh Root AP to manage up to 7 mesh node APs in LAN (check mesh compatible list for futhur details).

OFDMA splits a single transmission into groups of subcarriers, and each subcarrier can be used by different client. With multiple clients transmitting simultaneously in the same channel, it improves efficiency of every single transmission opportunity and thus increases the wireless experiences in high density environment.

Proactive roaming: WiFi clients automatically hand-off to another AP/Router with a better signal strength when moving around in an area with multiple APs/Routers. However, WiFi clients sometimes stick to the AP/Router with weak signal, and not switching to the one with better signal.

Assisted roaming: VigorAP will disassociate the WiFi clients who are out of the effective transmission range, forcing them to pick up another AP/Router with a stronger signal.

Stronger signal guaranteed: furthermore, with "Minimum RSSI with Adjacent AP" option, VigorAP can disassociate the client only when other AP/router has a stronger wireless signal, and keep client stayed when there’s no other AP/Router nearby.
