A system dynamically adjusts bandwidth allocations in a mesh network that includes at least two data communication pathways ( 214 and 222, 216, and 212 ) between a first access point (AP 1 ) and a second access point (AP 2 ). The first access point (AP 1 ) determines an amount of data to be sent to the second access point (AP 2 ) and selects at least one of the data communication pathways ( 214 and 222, 216, and 212 ) for sending the amount of data. The first access point (AP 1 ) receives an overload value indicating a maximum amount of data to be transmitted to the second access point (AP 2 ) along the selected data communication pathway, compares the overload value to the amount of data to be sent, and reduces a routing probability value assigned to the selected communication pathway in response to the overload value being less than the amount of data to be sent.
