Abstract:
Various embodiments provide dynamic reconfiguration of a connectivity configuration associated with a wireless networking device. The wireless networking device maintains multiple wireless connections with multiple user devices using a combination of beam-formed wireless signals and omnidirectional wireless signals. The wireless network device generates a list of connected or associated user devices that are capable of beam-formed wireless communications, and obtains metrics for each respective user device. The wireless networking device prioritizes the list based upon the respective metrics, and determines whether a current connectivity configuration differs from the prioritization. Responsive to determining a difference, the wireless networking device can dynamically reconfigure the connectivity configuration by modifying a connection type associated with at least one user device.
