    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an investigator device and a method for determining a condition of an antenna of an access point (AP). At least one investigator device may receive one or more antenna condition test frames transmitted via a plurality of antennas of the AP Further, the at least one investigator device may determine an average received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value corresponding to each of the plurality of antennas based on the one or more antenna condition test frames. A condition of the plurality of antennas of the AP may be determined based on a relative comparison between the average RSSI value corresponding to each of the plurality of antennas of the AP. Moreover, in some examples, the at least one investigator device may send a notification to an administrator of the AP based on the condition of the plurality of antennas.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a method for reconfiguring a beacon by an access point (AP) to minimize or avoid network outages experienced by client devices connected to the AP. The AP transmits a beacon comprising a basic service set identifier (BSSID) field and a Multiple BSSID (MBSSID) element. The MBSSID element corresponds to an MBSSID set comprising a transmitted BSSID associated with a transmitted virtual access point (VAP) and a non-transmitted BSSID associated with a non-transmitted VAP, where the BSSID field in the beacon is set to the transmitted BSSID. Further, the AP reconfigures the beacon to generate a reconfigured beacon upon determining that the transmitted VAP is non-functional. In particular, the BSSID field in the reconfigured beacon is set to the non-transmitted BSSID of the MBSSID set. Moreover, the AP transmits the reconfigured beacon to the client device.

    Abstract: A method for determining presence of a radar includes receiving a plurality of bursts in a dynamic frequency selection (DFS) channel of an access point, storing the plurality of bursts in a queue, in response to the queue comprising a threshold amount of bursts, determining a timespan of a first burst in the queue to a last burst in the queue, partitioning the timespan into at least a first group and a second group, determining a first number of bursts present in the first group and a second number of bursts present in the second group, in response to a difference between the first number of bursts and the second number of bursts equaling more than one, determining the radar is not present, and in response to the difference between the first number of bursts and the second number of bursts equaling one or less, determining radar is present.
