Automatic delivery traffic indication message interval control for better mobile power save performance

A network device, operable to:

• determine one or more characteristics for at least one client device;
• dynamically select a first Virtual Access Point (VAP) from a plurality of VAPs, to provide network access to the at least one client device, based on the one or more characteristics for the at least one client device, wherein a DTIM interval for said at least one client device is determined by said network device based on a frequency that the at least one client device enters a power save mode;
• and
• cause the at least one client device to connect to said first VAP.

A network device operable to:

• determine one or more characteristics for at least one client device;
• dynamically select, in said network device, a first radio from a plurality of radios, to provide network access to the at least one client device, based on the one or more characteristics for the at least one client device configured for the first radio, wherein a DTIM interval is determined by said network device based on applications that are currently executing on the at least one client device;
