Claim One:
1. A method comprising: determining, by a network device, a plurality of client devices' locations within a wireless network; assigning, by the network device, the plurality of client devices into a number of clusters; calculating, by the network device, an original cluster centroid location for each cluster of client devices; calculating, by the network device, an average distance between each client device in a particular cluster and the original cluster centroid location for the particular cluster; iteratively adjusting, by the network device, the number of clusters and assignment of the plurality of client devices to determine the number of clusters associated with a low number of cluster and a low average distance from each client device in a respective cluster to a respective cluster centroid location; and assigning, by the network device, a subset of access points in the wireless network to a high priority, each AP in the subset having the closest distance to the respective cluster centroid location corresponding to the determined number of clusters.
