Summary:A method of managing communications among devices and access points, APs (410), are disclosed. An access point, AP (410), that is configured for communication via a first radio access technology, RAT, and a second RAT, broadcasts an indication that the AP is capable of communicating via the first RAT and the second RAT, wherein the AP includes a management entity that is common to the first RAT and the second RAT. Via the first RAT, an attachment request indicative of a station, STA, that is configured to communicate via the first RAT and the second RAT, is received. Responsive to the attachment request, an attachment response is transmitted via the first RAT, wherein the attachment response indicates an operating mode change for the STA.
