Summary:A mm wave radio communication mesh network comprises a wireless node apparatus comprising a plurality of wireless modems (103) and a configuration controller (307) arranged to perform a node configuration arranged to configure the wireless modems (103) as access point wireless modems or non-access point wireless modems. A detector (309) detects if a beam direction for a first wireless modem is proximal to an extreme of a beam direction interval supported by the first wireless modem. If so, a configuration controller (307) proceeds to perform a node configuration to configure a second wireless modem as an access point wireless modem or a non-access point wireless modem depending on the configuration of the first wireless modem. This may allow the second wireless modem to be ready to support the communication if the link with the first wireless modem fails. The approach may improve the formation of an efficient mesh network.
