In fact the reason for this association/disassociation has been identified prior to this post. As I said in a previous message we are now using the multiSSID in a way that is no more confusing for the stations.

The fact that we have a single MAC address for each virtual SSID is of course not optimal but this is working well for the moment. Even if the Beacon Managment frame is important for the client it is not the only frame that is able to provide specific settings about the Access Point SSIDs. This allow us to provide additional infos we cannot provide with the Beacon Management frame [I am unfortunately not allowed to go to much in detail].

I am not sur we should call it "bad engineering" as long as we are within the standard. Be sure that we will do multi SSIDs-Multi MAC as soon as the chipset allow us to do so... it is just a matter of months.

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.
-Darren

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
