Zusammenfassung:In one embodiment, a client device having a plurality of radios obtains a list of basic service set identifiers (BSSIDs) for a plurality of wireless access points of a wireless network. The client device associates each of the plurality of radios of the client device with a different wireless access point of the wireless network, based on the obtained list of BSSIDs. The client device receives a copy of a data packet from a particular one of the associated wireless access points. Each of the associated wireless access points receives a replicated copy of the data packet to be transmitted towards the client device. The device causes the associated wireless access points to cease further transmission of their copies of the data packet by acknowledging receipt of the data packet to the particular wireless access point.
