Abstract
An access point for interference detection includes memory configured to store information identifying one or more non-associated client devices that are not configured to communicate with the access point, and one or more processors, implemented in circuitry, coupled to the memory and configured to: determine that communication signals outputted from a non-associated client device to another access point or from the other access point to the non-associated client device are being received by the access point based on the stored information, determine an amount of in-network interference being generated by the communication signals based at least in part on the determination that the communication signals from the non-associated client device or from the other access point are being received by the access point, and output interference information based on the determined amount of in-network interference.
