1. A system for managing network configurations, the system comprising:
one or more hardware processors; and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-usable instructions that, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the one or more hardware processors to:
at a network manager associated with a base station:
receive an indication that the base station is at a maximum traffic threshold, wherein the maximum traffic threshold indicates a number of devices connected to the base station;
determine whether at least one fixed wireless access (FWA)-capable device is connected to the base station;
upon determining there is at least one FWA-capable device connected to the base station, assign the FWA-capable device as a FWA hub, wherein the FWA hub acts as an intermediate device between the base station and one or more devices; and
connect the one or more devices indirectly to the base station via the FWA hub.
