1. A network system comprising:
an access point coupled to a backend network, the access point having a plurality of wireless interfaces on which a plurality of extenders communicate;
a first extender within the plurality of extenders, the first extender coupled to at least one of a first plurality of terminals, the first extender communicates with a first wireless interface in the plurality of wireless interfaces on the access point;
a second extender within the plurality of extenders, the second extender coupled to at least one of a second plurality of terminals, the second extender communicates with a second wireless interface in the plurality of wireless interfaces on the access point; and
a processing unit coupled to communicate with the access point, the first extender and the second extender, the processing unit receives a plurality of measurements on connections across a plurality of possible connection architectures among the access point, the first extender, and the second extender, the plurality of measurements comprising a throughput measurement, the processing unit uses the received plurality of measurements to determine a preferred connection architecture among the plurality of possible connection architectures.
