A system for implementing a multi-radio wireless network includes a plurality of endpoints wirelessly coupled to a relay station. The system also includes a base station wirelessly coupled to the relay station. The relay station includes a first radio operable to use a first channel to communicate with the base station. The relay station also includes a second radio operable to use a second channel to communicate with the plurality of endpoints. The relay station further includes a processor coupled to the first radio and the second radio. The processor is operable to relay data between the base station and the plurality of endpoints.
