Method for allocating data-transmission resources, and corresponding switching method, access point, terminal, computer program and signal

The invention relates to a method of switching data transmission from an origin channel to a destination channel, in a terminal (T) associated with an access point (AP) of a communication network, said point access point (AP) managing a set of at least two communication channels, According to the invention, such a method in said terminal (T), implements an association and authentication phase (61) with said access point (AP), comprising a step of obtaining (62) d a unique identifier (AID) in said access point (AP), and a failover management phase (64) implementing the following steps: determining (65) a destination channel managed by said access point, by processing at least one piece of information received from said access point; - Switchover (66) of the data transmission from said original channel to said determined destination channel, without modification of said identifier.
