Abstract:
Wireless infrastructure upgrading may be provided. An Access Point (AP) may be caused to decline new association requests received from client devices not associated with the AP. Next, the AP may be caused to instruct client devices associated with the AP that detect a signal level from the AP to be below their roaming margin to roam away from the AP. Then the power of the signal level from the AP may be decreased by a predetermined amount. Causing the AP to instruct client devices associated with the AP that detect the signal level from the AP to be below their roaming margin to roam away from the AP and decreasing the power of the signal level from the AP may be repeated until the power of the signal level from the AP is at a predetermined level.
