Abstract:
A system includes first and second access points. Each access point includes one or more 802.11 wireless radios configured to communicate with a wireless node. The first and second access points are both configured to wirelessly receive first data from the wireless node at substantially a same time and forward the first data. The first and second access points are also both configured to receive second data for the wireless node. The first access point is configured to wirelessly transmit the second data to the wireless node, and the second access point is configured to refrain from transmitting the second data to the wireless node while the first access point is operating properly.
