Chapter 21 Troubleshooting Wireless clients are not being load balanced among my APs. • Make sure that all the APs used by the wireless clients in question share the same SSID, security, and radio settings. • Make sure that all the APs are in the same broadcast domain. • Make sure that the wireless clients are in range of the other APs; if they are only in range of a single AP, then load balancing may not be as effective. In the Monitor > Wireless > AP Information > Radio List page, there is no load balancing indicator associated with any APs assigned to the load balancing task. • Check to be sure that the AP profile which contains the load balancing settings is correctly assigned to the APs in question. • The load balancing task may have been terminated because further load balancing on the APs in question is no longer required. 21.6 Resetting the NWA3000-N series AP If you cannot access the NWA3000-N series AP by any method, try restarting it by turning the power off and then on again.

Wireless clients are not being load balanced among my APs.
Make sure that all the APs used by the wireless clients in question share the
same SSID, security, and radio settings.
Make sure that all the APs are in the same broadcast domain.
Make sure that the wireless clients are in range of the other APs; if they are only
in range of a single AP, then load balancing may not be as effective.
In the
Monitor > Wireless > AP Information > Radio List
page, there is no load
balancing indicator associated with any APs assigned to the load balancing task.
Check to be sure that the AP profile which contains the load balancing settings is
correctly assigned to the APs in question.
The load balancing task may have been terminated because further load
balancing on the APs in question is no longer required.
