Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004028175A1] Aspects of the invention may provide a system and method for load balancing in a hybrid wired/wireless local area network. A method for load balancing in a hybrid wired/wireless local area network may include the step of receiving a polling message from an access device by at least one of a plurality of access points (926). One or more of the access points located within an operating range of the access device may interpret the polling message (928). In response to the polling message, a load on one or more of the access points may be determined (932) and the determined load of one or more of the access points may be received by the access device (934). An access point having a least load may be selected by an access device to provide service (936).
