Right, so the problem is that I'm on a school wifi network. Here the wifi systems are quite poorly set up and I want to stick to one AP for the same SSID. We all know that in device manager that you can only set roaming aggressiveness to low. My question is: Can this boi be completely turned off? Why? Because any connection dependent on stability and constant flow of data gets terminated due to the brief disconnect. Pls halp :') DaddyDjent

Not something I'm familiar with. Hard wired Ethernet was built this way for reliability. Wi-Fi is meant to adapt by selecting the strongest available signal from multiple networks. When they label them all under the same network name, the device automatically switches to the most suitable one at that instant.

I understand WiFi repeaters can lock onto a specific AP's MAC address, but I'm not sure about methods in Windows to achieve this. This feature would stop them from connecting to another AP with the same SSID.
