usteer is a client steering daemon written for OpenWrt.
Its goal is to optimize roaming behavior of wireless clients (STAs) in a ESS consisting of multiple BSS / APs.
- Synchronization of Neighbor Reports between multiple APs
- Policy-based decisions for probe- / association- / authentication requests received from STAs
- Requesting clients to roam to a different BSS based on SNR / signal-level
- Channel-load based client steering to different BSS
usteer is available from the OpenWrt packages feed and can be installed on devices running OpenWrt 21.02+ using opkg:
opkg update; opkg install usteer
