Unleashed client connect to the far access point

I have more than one client mostly in 2.4Ghz that are connecting not to the near AP R600 2 meters but they are connecting automatically to the far access point R500 where is 3-4 meters away plus kitchen and 2walls in between.

I reduced already the TX power of 2.4Ghz to -4dB, screenshot settings attached.

What else do you suggest ? Image: https://d2r1vs3d9006ap.cloudfront.net/s3_images/1679284/RackMultipart20171205-78352-4rz2s2-ruckus_cluster_inline.PNG?1512469092

Instead of adjusting the TX Power, have you tried enabling 802.11k for the WLAN and setting a low 2.4GHz percentage in Services, Radio Control and Band Balancing? That said, you might also get better performance if you do not limit the radio to three channels.

1 the band balancing at the moment is set to 10% shall I drop to 2% ?
2 do I need also enable the "band balancing" in the WLAN to make the 1 option working ?
