Abstract

Methods, devices, non-transitory processor-readable storage media for mapping different local area network (LAN) connections to different data subscriptions of a software-enabled access point (softAP) computing device. A method executed by a softAP computing device processor may include storing a mapping that associates each in a plurality of LAN connections for the LAN established by the softAP computing device with one of a plurality of wide area network (WAN) connections, connecting a client device to the LAN via one of the plurality of LAN connections, routing data traffic received from the client device to one of the plurality of WAN connections based on the stored mapping, and routing data traffic received via one of the plurality of WAN connections to the client device based on the stored mapping. The softAP computing device may also perform re-routing of data traffic based on whether WAN connections are out-of-service or have bandwidth availability.
