The disclosed embodiments include a system, computer program product, and method for modifying communications of a communications network. For example, in one embodiment, a computer implemented method for modifying communications of a communications network comprises receiving performance information packets that includes network performance information associated with the communications network, and transmitting a command to a specified access point based on the network performance information. In certain embodiments, the command instructs the specified access point to perform at least one of reconfiguring itself based on a particular set of configuration parameters, restarting itself, running diagnostic routines, increasing buffered data, refreshing a routing table, modifying a routing table, terminating a particular process or processes, and terminating all operations.
