6. A method comprising:
operating an access point including at least a radio on a first frequency band in a first radio mode, the radio to operate on a first channel of the first band to service a first basic service set (BSS);
transitioning the access point to a second radio mode including splitting the radio on the first frequency band into a first radio and a second radio, the first radio to operate on the first channel to service the first BSS and the second radio to operate on a second channel of the first band to perform an additional service, the first radio including a first hardware filter set and the second radio including a second hardware filter set, wherein the first hardware filter set includes a lower-band filter and a full-band filter and the second hardware filter set includes an upper-band filter and a full-band filter;
in response to the first channel and second channel located in an upper sub-band of the first frequency band, migrating the BSS from the first radio to the second radio, and operating the upper-band filter of the second radio and the full-band filter of the first radio, and increasing a dwell time for the first radio to perform the additional service comprising a scanning service on the first radio;
in response to the first channel located in the upper sub-band and the second channel located in a lower sub-band of the first frequency band, migrating the BSS from the first radio to the second radio, and operating the lower-band filter of the first radio and the upper-band filter of the second radio; and
in response to the first channel and the second channel located in the lower sub-band, increasing a dwell time for the second radio to perform the additional service comprising a scanning service on the second radio.
