Abstract
Techniques for routing data in a wireless communication network including a hybrid of infrastructure wireless local area network (WLAN) and neighbor awareness networking (NAN). A subscription is identified between a first NAN device in a first NAN cluster in the network and a second NAN device in a second NAN cluster in the network. The first NAN cluster includes at least one NAN device not included in the second NAN cluster. A first path is generated between the first NAN device and the second NAN device. The first path includes a first network access point (AP) in the network. Data is transmitted from the first NAN device to the second NAN device using the first path comprising the first AP.
