Claim 15:
16. The method of claim 15, wherein selecting whether to operate in the multi-link mode or the single-link mode based on detecting the external trigger comprises:
selecting to operate in the multi-link mode based on detecting at least one of: roaming from a non-multi-link operation AP to a multi-link operation AP, use of a high throughput application, use of a low latency application, an indication of a low or ultra-low latency mode, an increase in a transmission control protocol window size, an increase in backhaul network capacity, or battery power exceeding a threshold; and
selecting to operate in the single-link mode based on detecting at least one of: roaming from a multi-link operation AP to an non-multi-link operation AP, use of a low throughput application, use of a high latency application, a decrease in a transmission control protocol window size, a decrease of backhaul network capacity, or battery power below the threshold.
