Abstract
Reciprocal wireless connections may be established between a pair of devices to support failover, load balancing, traffic distribution, or other peer-to-peer connectivity features. Each device of a pair of devices may implement both a local wireless access point and a local wireless station to communicate with the other device of the pair of devices. Establishment of a second wireless connection between the pair of devices may be coordinated using a protocol extension of a first wireless connection. A multiplexing (MUX) component may coordinate traffic among the reciprocal wireless connections.
