Abstract
Technologies directed to access point (AP) classification and selection to minimize a number of disconnect messages and achieve better throughput and reduce latency when a device is presented with multiple basic service set identifiers (BSSIDs) for AP selection are described. One method receives disconnect metrics from wireless devices, the disconnect metrics including a reason code associated with a disconnect message and a BSSID and an Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) associated with an AP. The method identifies a set of APs using a reason code for a load balancing or band steering operation by clustering the disconnect metrics. The method receives a query with a first BSSID and a first OUI associated with a first AP and determines that the first AP is part of the set of APs using the reason code. The method sends a response with the reason code being used for load balancing or band steering operation.
