    Decentralized WiFi Controller (by berlin-open-wireless-lab)

    It's not out-of-the-box perfect, but I've had decent luck using DAWN, which targets openwrt, to get decent bandsteering. I can always ssh in (I personally havent been interested in installing/trying the "luci" web interface) & move someone between bands if I need to.

    Also, this setup works across & steers clients between my multiple access points!

    It's amazing being able to ssh in and see a map of what signals each AP sees. DAWN periodically asks clients to help map, so even if the AP's are on different bands, you can still compare what the signal would be if the node moved.

    We'ee finally living in a pretty good time for open source wifi. A pity how only a couple chips have support (select MediaTek and Qualcomm) but wow things have gotten much better.
