    Abstract: A method includes determining whether a first access point of a plurality of access points and a second access point of the plurality of access points should communicate simultaneously over a shared channel in a first network and in response to determining that one of the plurality of access points won contention of a transmission opportunity for the shared channel, dividing the transmission opportunity into a plurality of time slots. The method also includes scheduling transmissions of the first and second access points into the plurality of time slots according to the determination whether the first and second access points should communicate simultaneously over the shared channel and communicating, to the second access point and over a wired network or a second network different from the first network, an indication of whether the second access point should communicate during a first time slot of the plurality of time slots.

    Abstract: A method to operate a multi-link wireless device. The method includes establishing at least a first multi-link device interface and a second multi-link device interface, exposing, via a virtual data port, the first multi-link device interface and the second multi-link device interface at a data processing layer of the wireless device, selecting one of the first multi-link device interface and the second multi-link device interface, as a selected multi-link device interface, based on performance information associated with a first radio and a second radio associated, respectively, with the first multi-link device interface and the second multi-link device interface, and wirelessly transmitting a packet from the wireless device by routing the packet through the selected multi-link device interface.

    Abstract: Automated activation of unsolicited probe responses may be provided. Probe traffic data may be received. Then, based on the probe traffic data, a plurality of probe traffic cost metrics may be determined. Each one of the plurality of probe traffic cost metrics may be respectively associated with a plurality of Unsolicited Probe Response (UPR) modes. An Access Point (AP) may then be operated in a one of the plurality of UPR modes that has a respective probe traffic cost metric that indicates a lowest probe traffic cost of the plurality of probe traffic cost metrics.
