Abstract

Systems and methods enhance handling, within an access point (AP) of a local area network, of content from a content provider. A content session core of the AP opens a session with the content provider and allows interaction between a user of a first end device and the content provider via the session. Content from the content provider is received at the content session core and forwarded for play on the first end device. The content session core may mirror the content to a second real end device without requiring an additional session with the content provider, and may switch play of the content from the first to the second end devices without disconnecting the session with the content provider. A wireless LAN controller enhances a connectivity experience of a mobile device by determining its location and predicting when to handoff connectivity between wireless APs of the LAN.
