#### Roaming #### Roaming
ESPSomfy RTS supports roaming between access points in a mesh network as of v2.4.1. Although the ESP32 MCU does not contain a dual wan configuration so it can switch between access points without disabling the radio, ESPSomfy RTS will scan for access points and reconnect to a stronger one should it see a better connection on the network. ESPSomfy RTS performs a passive scan and does not shut down the Wifi radio during the detection phase and will not change the connection unless the access point provides at least 10dbm better connectivity.

ESPSomfy RTS performs a passive scan and does not shut down the Wifi radio during the detection phase. It will also not change the connection unless the access point provides at least 10dbm better connectivity or the existing connection is lost entirely.
By default roaming is enabled and should provide you with the most reliable Wifi connection on your mesh network but if you have a router setup that does not include mesh technologies or multiple access points or you are using AP binding on your router, simply uncheck the `Enable Roaming` checkbox and save the adapter. This will stop ESPSomfy RTS from even looking for a different AP to connect to.
