A method and apparatus for improving unbalance of service at a cell edge in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). A method of an Access Point (AP) for improving unbalance at service of a cell edge in a WLAN includes monitoring for a continuous decrease of a signal strength of a station over a predefined duration, determining if the station is to handover, when the continuous decrease of the signal strength occurs, and decreasing a transmit power of the AP, when it is determined that the corresponding station is to handover.
