Abstract

A server has a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to collect scan lists from client devices. Each scan list includes individual entries. Each individual entry specifies a WiFi access point network identifier collected by a client. WiFi access point networks in the scan lists are evaluated. WiFi access point handshake priorities are supplied to the client devices. The WiFi access point handshake priorities characterize WiFi access point recovery and discovery priorities.
