The load on access points (APs) in wireless, local area networks (WLANs) is minimized using a number of methods and associated devices. One method minimizes the load of the most congested APs while a second balances the load on both congested and uncongested APs using an optimal min-max (priority) load balanced solution. The optimal solution is obtained without requiring complex modifications, among other things. Both methods include adjustments to the transmission power levels of AP beacon messages to reduce congestion, but do not require adjustments to the transmission power levels of AP data traffic channels.
