Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein include playback devices with multiple radios, antennas, filters, and switching circuits employed to enable switching of radios between multiple wireless networks. The switching is based on parameters of the wireless networks and on capabilities of other satellite playback devices communicating over the wireless networks. In some embodiments, the wireless networks are WIFI networks operating over one or more of a 2.4 GHz WIFI band, a lower frequency region of a 5 GHz WIFI band, a higher frequency region of the 5 GHz WIFI band, and a 6 GHz WIFI band. In some embodiments, the radios are switched between wireless networks in response to a change of frequency of a WIFI Access Point and/or a lost connection to a satellite playback device.
