1. A method, comprising:

  • configuring, by a switch, a plurality of repeaters operating at a substantially identical communication frequency to coordinate transmissions of first and second data packets to first and second mobile stations, respectively, that are wirelessly communicatively coupled to a repeater from among the plurality of repeaters, the first data packet being characterized as having a first address that corresponds to the first mobile station and the second data packet being characterized as having a second address that corresponds to the second mobile station;

    performing, by the switch, an address translation on the first and second addresses to identify a switch port from among a plurality of switch ports that corresponds to the repeater;

    determining, by the switch, whether wirelessly transmitting the first and second data packets from the repeater to the first and second mobile stations, respectively, will create interference between the first and second data packets; and

    transmitting, by the switch, the first and second data packets through the switch port to the repeater at different times when it is determined that wirelessly transmitting the first and second data packets from the repeater will create interference.
