The method includes, until there are no more access points to which to assign a transmit power and frequency channel, selecting a next current access point, determining for a set of at least one transmit power for a set of at least one frequency channel a measure of the quality of the sub-network formed by the current access point and all already-assigned access points an evaluation metric indicative of the quality of the sub-network, and assigning to the current access point the transmit power and frequency channel that minimizes the measure of the quality of the sub-network.
