    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to establishing a connection between a client device and an access point (AP). The AP may receive a series of connection frames from a client device. In response to determining that the client device is unstable based on the series of connection frames, the AP may assign a simplified wireless connection configuration to the client device. Further, the AP may receive a request management frame from the client device after the simplified wireless connection configuration has been assigned to the client device. The AP may generate a customized response frame for the request management frame based on the simplified wireless connection configuration. The AP may send the customized response management frame to the client device. Finally, a reliable connection may be established between the AP and the client device based on the customized response management frame.

    Abstract: Examples of techniques for handling fine time measurement ranging requests are described. In an example, an access point (AP) may receive a ranging request for initiating a Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) session. The AP may modify a channel width of a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) channel on which the AP is operating from a first channel width to a second channel width for performing the FTM session, where the second channel width is greater than the first channel width. In response to completion of an FTM burst associated with the FTM session, the AP may restore the channel width of the WLAN channel to the first channel width for performing non-FTM operations of the AP.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to maintaining a reliable connection between a client device and an access point (AP). Based on the data frames exchanged between the AP and a client device of a plurality of client devices communicatively coupled to the AP after the client device is connected to the AP, the AP may determine whether a client device is experiencing performance issues with respect to a wireless communication feature. In response to determining that the client device is experiencing performance issues with respect to the wireless communication feature, the AP may disable the wireless communication feature for the client device. Further, the AP may continue to exchange data frames with the client device without offering the wireless communication feature. Further, the AP continues to offer the wireless communication feature to another client device of a plurality of client devices not facing the performance issue related to the wireless communication feature.

    Abstract: Examples of techniques for handling fine time measurement ranging requests are described. In an example, an access point (AP) may receive a ranging request for initiating a Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) session. Responsive to determining that the client device is associated with the AP, it is determined that the ranging request is received after a threshold time from expiry of an FTM burst period of the client device. It is determined that the ranging request is within an FTM acceptance threshold of the AP. A number of consecutive unsuccessful FTM bursts between the AP and the client device is determined. In response to determining that the number of consecutive unsuccessful FTM bursts is less than an unsuccessful burst threshold of the AP, the FTM session may be initiated based on the ranging request.

    Abstract: Examples of techniques for handling multiple fine time measurement ranging requests are described. In an example, an access point (AP) may receive a ranging request for initiating an FTM session from each client device in a set of client devices. Based on the ranging request, a plurality of burst durations, each for performing the FTM session for each client device is determined. A maximum burst duration may be determined form the plurality. If a service time for serving high priority traffic is less than the maximum burst duration, a subset of the client devices is selected for performing the FTM session, where a sum of burst durations for performing the FTM session for each client device in the subset is less than the maximum burst duration. The FTM session for each client device in the subset is initiated.
