  • Patent number: 8942717
    Abstract: Techniques are described that provide load balancing in wireless networks. For instance, a device (e.g., a first access point) may receive one or more current operational characteristics for each of one or more neighbor APs. Also, the first AP may determine a received signal strength for each of these neighbor AP(s). In turn, the first AP selects one or more reportable neighbor APs from these neighbor APs. Further, the first AP transmits a beacon. This beacon includes, for each reportable neighbor AP, the corresponding one or more current operational characteristics and the corresponding received signal strength.

  • Patent number: 8321671
    Abstract: A technique for allowing client-driven profile updates in a wireless network uses a shared character password and a shared image that is known by both a client device and a network server. In some embodiments, a random character table is generated by a client device and is used, along with the shared character password and shared image, to calculate a one-time password (OTP). The OTP is then used to both encrypt and sign a new security profile to be delivered to the network server in a profile update request. The server may then generate the same OTP using information within the request and the shared character password and shared image. The new profile may then be decrypted and validated within the server.
