Examples of the present disclosure include: obtain data collected from a plurality of access points (APs) in a WLAN, including a current allocation of channels to radios of the APs according to a current channel plan; calculate a new channel plan which assigns a different channel to at least one of the radios; calculate a first metric that predicts better network performance achieved by the new channel plan than the current allocation of channels to the radios; determine whether the first metric exceeds a first predetermined threshold; and implement the new channel plan in response to determining that the first metric exceeds the first predetermined threshold.
