1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a mobile device from a server, location data identifying access points;
in response to receiving the location data identifying access points, determining, by the mobile device, that an identifier of at least one of the access points is within a communication range of the mobile device;
in response to determining that an identifier is within the communication range, comparing, by the mobile device, the identifier of the at least one of the access points with the location data identifying access points;
in response to comparing the identifier with the location data, determining, by the mobile device, that the at least one of the access points is a mobile access point; and
in response to determining that the at least one of the access points is the mobile access point, updating operating parameters executed by the mobile device.

Abstract
In some implementations, a method includes receiving, from a server, location data identifying locations of access points and mobile access points. A mobile device may determine an identifier of an access point within a communication range. The identifier is compared with the location data to identify parameters for the access point. The access point is determined to be a mobile access point based on the identified parameters included in the location data. In response to identifying the mobile access point, operating parameters executed by the mobile device are updated.
