The rise of inexpensive, high-bitrate wireless link technologies enabled the development of rapid and affordable techniques for the deployment of communication infrastructures, something only available before with the use of wired links. The ratification of the IEEE 802.11s ammendment, which establishes the necessary modifications to 802.11-compliant devices for supporting multi-hop WLANs, presents the HWMP protocol, that addresses multi-hop path selection in a wireless mesh. In a bidirectional communication environment, it is not always ensured that the best options for sending and receiving data are coincident, a condition known as path asymmetry, and not considered by HWMP. This work presents some adaptations to the protocol, seeking to allow better use of asymmetric links, as well as measures its performance differences in comparison to the original protocol.
