A wireless access point (WAP) configured to supporting wireless communications with station nodes on a selected communication channel of an associated wireless local area network (WLAN). The WAP includes multiple multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmit and receive paths. The WAP is to intermittently switch one of the multiple MIMO receive paths to concurrently process both communications on a selected communication channel together with monitoring communications on unselected channels of the multiple communication channels associated with the WLAN.
