Abstract
A dual mode, dual band wireless communication network (100) and a method for using the same. The wireless communication network (100) includes nodes, such as mobile nodes (102), access points (106) and wireless routers (107), that can communicate wirelessly over two different frequencies, for example, 2.4 GHz and 4.9 GHz, to provide high mobility and high data rate capabilities, and for communication with 802.11 compliant and non-802.11 compliant devices.
