 If behavior is as described then its a bug - that's precisely how ALL
access points are set up for any case where there is more than a single
AP on same SSID .. i.e. every commercial, office, hotel, campus, airport
etc wifi is done exactly that way ... many personal setups use multiple
AP's as well on same SSID - its the correct way to do it.
