    Abstract: A home network controller (HNC) device includes a memory and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory to cause the HNC device to: instruct an APD to communicate with a client device over a first channel; receive a client information signal from the APD, wherein the client information signal relates to the client device and includes client disassociation data and client identification data; instruct the APD to communicate with the client device over a second channel; and transmit a channel information signal to the client device via the external network, wherein the channel information signal includes channel identification data identifying the second channel. The client disassociation data indicates that the client device has disassociated from the APD. The client identification data enables the processor to transmit the channel information signal to the client device via the external network.
