In environments, where the AP has extenders (typically having identical SSIDs as that of main base AP) or has mesh network type of configuration (EERO product) etc, would the WICED SDK handle the connections/re-connections automatically?  It appears that the application has to explicitly use the BSSID and add extra layer of logic, to handle these configurations. 

Can someone confirm what the expected behavior from WICED framework be, in these situations?

We find numerous connection failure issues with Apple Airport Express (extenders with same SSIDs).  Wondering if there is any similar experience by others.
