Abstract
The present invention relates generally to an information handling system. Aspects of the present invention include a mitigation of a wired backhaul limitation with a single Ethernet on a wireless access point (AP). In embodiments, a wireless controller can monitor the wired traffic on a plurality of wireless access points. In embodiments, the wireless controller can distribute traffic across a plurality of wireless access points, when a wireless access point is going to approach its wired backhaul limitation, by setting up a temporary wireless connection between AP's. Thus, more than one wireless access point can share the wired backhaul load of other AP's and mitigate its wired backhaul limitation.
