US Patent 11889339 Mesh path selection based on end-to-end throughput

Technologies for mesh path selection are described. One method of operating a first wireless mesh device includes determining, using first client information about a first link, a first metric representing airtime usage on the link, and a second metric representing a first amount of data on a second link, the second link using the first frequency band. The method determines a third metric on a third link, the third link using a second frequency band. The method determines, using the metrics, a first throughput associated with a first path with the second link and a second throughput associated with a second path. The method determines that the third link results in better throughput and sends or receives first data on the third link.
