Claim:
1. A wireless transceiver apparatus configured to support wireless communications with associated transceiver nodes on at least one selected wireless communication channel on a wireless local area network (WLAN); and the wireless transceiver apparatus comprising: a plurality of components coupled to one another to form transmit and receive paths for processing wireless communications on the at least one selected wireless communication channel; local control circuits each of which controls a distinct portion of the wireless transceiver's wireless operations via connections to a related subset of the plurality of components; a Remote and Local (R/L) switch fabric configured to switchably connect each of the subsets of the plurality of components to at least one of, a related one of the local control circuits and a remote server providing remote control of a related portion of the wireless transceiver's wireless operations, to enable a configurable mix of local and remote control sources among the distinct portions of the wireless transceiver's wireless operations; and a mode selection circuit coupled to the R/L switch fabric to select one of an autonomous mode and a slave mode for setup of the R/L switch fabric, where the mix of local and remote sources are configured in the slave mode by the remote server and in the autonomous mode by the wireless transceiver.
