Hi,
I have tested the 802.11r with the two Router R9000 and Netgear R7800, both with QCA9984:
Quote:
when I ran from the area of the first router to the second with active Speedtest.net on an iphone, the download dropped from 240Mbps to about 100Mbps; but was not interrupted.
Between the first and second router is a concrete cover which is strong shielding. It was effectively switched between the two connections with no connection failure.
It would be nice if routers like the DAP-2660, R6000, NanoBeam with the QCA9882 chip could use the 802.11r (Fast Roaming) function.

i have the wle600vx, 802.11r is working fine on x86_64. its probably just not added to those router builds for whatever reason.. (just like dir-862L is missing it) maybe for flash space..? dont know _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

fixed for the dlink routers. for nanobeam i have to check. only wpa3 enabled devices do support it. this depends heavily on available flash space
edit:
nanobeam ac does already support it _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s
