Abstract

See full text

A method and system for controlling wireless communication between a mobile terminal and a plurality of wireless access points. Link status and quality data is determined about each communication link between the mobile terminal and each wireless access point that is currently detectable by the mobile terminal. A priority list of the detected wireless access points is also generated. Also determined are access point status and quality data about the wireless access points themselves and/or a network connecting them. This access point data may not be accessible to the mobile terminal. The access point data can also include status and/or quality of neighboring wireless access points that are near the detected wireless access points, but not yet detected by the mobile terminal. The link data, access point data and another ranking are used to select a best wireless access point with which the mobile terminal will communicate.
