Abstract
An example access point comprising: a memory; and a processor executing instructions stored in the memory to: determine a first interference event while operating on a first channel, wherein the first channel is designated to the access point in a global channel plan by a network controller based on a global view of a wireless network; switch to operate on a second channel from the first channel for a first amount of time in response to the first interference event; determine a second interference event of the same event type as the first interference event on the first channel, wherein the second interference event is the same event type as the first interference event; and switch to operate on the second channel from the first channel for a longer amount of time than the first amount of time, wherein the second channel is selected based on a local view of the wireless network by the access point.
