Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure are drawn to a client device for use with a first APD and a HNC. The first APD and HNC provide a wireless local area network for the client device and access to an external network to the client device. The client device includes a memory and a processor, which is configured to execute instructions stored on the memory. These instructions allow client device to: access the external network via the WLAN by way of the first access point device to perform a function; determine a steering opportunity for steering said client device based on the performance of the function; transmit a steering opportunity signal, based on the determined steering opportunity, to the home network controller; receive a steering request to steer said client device at a steering time based on the steering opportunity; and transmit a steering response honoring the received steering request.
