Method for controlling a wireless link in a local area network including a wireless bridge, respective wireless bridge, program storage medium and computer program

摘要

A method for operating a wireless link in a local area network is described. The wireless link includes a LAN access point, a wireless bridge linked with the LAN access point and a receiver linked with the wireless bridge. The wireless bridge includes a bridge access point and a bridge station. A multicast data connection is established between the LAN access point and the receiver via the wireless bridge by forwarding a multicast data stream, received by the bridge access point from the LAN access point, to the bridge station, restoring the wireless link after a connection loss of the wireless link, and sending a query message by the bridge station to the receiver, when the wireless link is restored.
