Can FIND work with multiple access points with the same name? #136

HI Its a great idea to locate internal positioning of user.But the doubt is that it works for multiple access points with same name in different locations in a college..

schollz commented 7 years ago

Access points (APs) can have the same name (or SSID), because each AP has a unique MAC address which is builtin to the hardware and cannot be changed. The MAC address is what FIND uses, not the SSID.

It works great at colleges.
