Claim 0:
1. A method implemented by a wireless access point in a mesh network, the method comprising:
determining a new transmission time period for an access point beacon that replaces a default transmission time period for the access point beacon,
wherein on a condition that no clients are associated with the wireless access point then the new transmission period is a greater length of time than the default transmission time period,
wherein on a condition that there is one or more clients associated with the access point then the new transmission time period is determined based on a minimum timing synchronization required by the one or more clients associated with the wireless access point; and

transmitting, from the wireless access point, the access point beacon periodically using the new transmission time period, wherein the access beacon is transmitted in an operating channel of the access point, wherein the access point only operates in the operating channel, wherein the access point beacon includes technical capabilities of the wireless access point.
