Abstract
There is provided handling of wireless links in a wireless backhaul network. Load information from an end-user access network and from a wireless backhaul network is acquired. A current network topology of the wireless backhaul network is associated with a current performance value as a function of the acquired load information. An estimated performance value for a new network topology is provided according to which at least one wireless link for a client node has been redirected from a current hub node sector to a new hub node sector. The at least one wireless link is redirected according to the new network topology in a case the estimated performance value is higher than the current performance value.
