Abstract
In one embodiment, a controller obtains a stream of data packets. The controller applies network-layer forward error correction encoding to the stream of data packets, to form one or more encoded packets. The controller causes the stream of data packets to be sent via a link in a wireless network between a first radio of a node in the wireless network and a first access point to which the first radio is wirelessly connected. The controller causes the one or more encoded packets to be sent between a second radio of the node and a second access point in the wireless network.
