Abstract
A wireless access point software application, including multiple software modules, dynamically determines the interference level of each channel. The application determines that a new channel is better suited to serve an RTC/RTE application over the present channel based on the interference levels and a set of interference measure thresholds. The application automatically creates a new basic service set on the new channel and associates the RTC/RTE device running the RTC/RTE application with the new basic service set. The application further refuses to associate the RTC/RTE device with the previous channel when the interference level on the new channel remains low based on a second set of interference measure thresholds. In addition, the application allows additional RTC/RTE devices to join the new basic service set with the first RTC/RTE device when the interference level on the new channel remains low based on the second set of interference measure thresholds.
