Roaming issues with WAP200

We have 10 APs WAP200 with the same hidden ssids working on different channels with passphrase 128 bit encription wired on 3 SRW208P switches.
When I move from one AP to another it associate me immediately by wifi but in most cases I lose ip packets and it connects me on IP level after differnt periods of time between 30 and 60 sec. Sometimes it connects me immediately without any packet lost and without any dependence.
Sometimes it lose only few packets. I have try everything. Linksys maintain that roaming between such devices should take a few seconds but in my case it takes almost a minute. The mobile devices are Motorola Symbol MC9090-G. Have any one experienced with WAP200 any roaming issues?

Re: Roaming issues with WAP200

If you are using the Access Point with same channel then the possibility of disconnection would be more .....
So try changing the wireless channel ......

Re: Roaming issues with WAP200

Did you find out what was causing your problem?. I have exactly the same problem on multiple sites all running Cisco 1242 APs and MC9090 devices. In my case it is not the channel settings or any other interference. I have checked this with a frequency analyzer to be absolutely sure.
