Which RUCKUS feature ensures clients are directed to the best frequency band (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz) during association?
Band Steering is a RUCKUS feature designed to guide dual-band capable clients toward the 5 GHz band, which generally provides better performance and less interference than 2.4 GHz.
As described in RUCKUS One Online Help -- Band Steering Configuration and RUCKUS AI Documentation -- Client Connectivity Optimization, when a client attempts to connect, the AP temporarily delays responses to 2.4 GHz probes, encouraging the client to associate on 5 GHz.
This feature enhances airtime efficiency and reduces congestion in dense environments. Band Balancing distributes clients between APs, while SmartCast and ChannelFly manage QoS and channel optimization, respectively.
