This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for establishing and maintaining connectivity between access points (APs) that provide multiple BSSID sets and wireless stations (STAs) that do not support enhanced multiple BSSID advertisement (EMA). In some implementations, a wireless communication device may transmit a burst of beacon frames each carrying a respective partial list of nontransmitted BSSID profiles for a multiple BSSID set. In such implementations, the bursts of beacon frames may be transmitted periodically such that the start of each burst occurs one beacon interval after the start of a prior burst. In some other implementations, a wireless communication device may broadcast multiple beacon frames each carrying a full set of nontransmitted BSSID profiles associated with a respective multiple BSSID set. In such implementations, each beacon frame may be periodically broadcast every beacon interval.
