Abstract: Various of the disclosed embodiments improve the operations of a combined access point/Cable modem. Though the access point component and the Cable modem component may perform operations in different spectrums, harmonics in the Cable spectrum may interfere with operations, e.g., in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz range, of the access point. Some embodiments implement a remediation and/or channel transition process for the access point following detection of Cable-related interference. During remediation, the device may, e.g., adjust the wireless power levels, EDCA backoff times, signal thresholds, etc. In some embodiments, if the remediation actions prove ineffective, the wireless peers may be relocated to a channel further from the interfering Cable harmonics. The determination to remediate or reallocate may be based on various contextual factors, e.g., the character of the peer devices and the applications being run.

Abstract translation: 各种所公开的实施例改进了组合接入点/电缆调制解调器的操作。 虽然接入点组件和电缆调制解调器组件可以在不同频谱中执行操作，但有线频谱中的谐波可能干扰接入点例如2.4GHz和5GHz范围内的操作。 一些实施例在检测到与电缆相关的干扰之后实现接入点的修复和/或信道转换过程。 在修复期间，设备可以例如调整无线功率电平，EDCA退避时间，信号阈值等。在一些实施例中，如果修复动作证明无效，则无线对等体可以被重定位到远离干扰电缆谐波的信道 。 修复或重新分配的决定可以基于各种上下文因素，例如对等设备的特征和正在运行的应用。
