Fast roaming or fast transition (FT) must be supported by the client too...no idea how to fiddle with phones roaming aggressiveness settings as well not all clients support it...
In general clients tend to stay connected to the AP that has initiated the first connection...and this is the same with all mesh systems...in most of the cases..i ve never seen a smooth transition..anywhere...may be its just me...
In DDWRT there must be a setting of FT(fast transition) somewhere, either advanced settings or wifi security tab....no idea how it works, as i ve never tested it...and I dont play with mesh systems any more...in general WDS is the best DDWRT can offer...in the past i played with it and was working good, no idea what is it's current state...and how clients behave with it...
