Abstract: In a wireless network with a plurality of access points, device calculates, for each wireless station in the network, a score based on at least an availability of the wireless network for the wireless station, combines the scores for the wireless stations into a current network score for a present configuration of the wireless network, calculates a plurality of predicted network scores corresponding to predicted network configurations with one wireless station moved to a different access point than in the present configuration, each predicted network score being a combination of the scores for wireless stations not moved in the predicted network configuration and a predicted score for the wireless station moved in the predicted network configuration, selects one of the current network score and the plurality of predicted network scores that satisfies a criterion; and, in case a predicted network score is selected.
