Standardization of local area wireless communication has resulted in
popularization of short-range, high-bandwidth wireless devices.  Such
devices have already been used to create small access networks.  An
emerging application are larger, multihop access networks where an access
point-- the single node wired to the outside-- is reached through multiple
wireless routers.

We considered the problem of load balance in such networks,
necessitated by potential hot spots of bandwidth usage.  This talk
describes a load balancing method where wireless routers first form
trees rooted at an access point's interfaces, and then continually
improve the load balance by switching to trees which are less loaded.
We use simulations to evaluate the convergence rate, and compare with
standard qos path-finding algorithms.
