Effective communication can be categorized by its approaches used to handles the uncertainties and especially in wireless medium.Wireless mesh network is one of the ad-hoc networks having huge applicability with variety of protocols supporting different routing situations.Load balancing over the gateway is one of the key issues related to optimal routing in WMN.In case of multiple networks inter communication; WMN suffers from the gateway selection problem and its load distribution commonly taken as NP-Hard complexity.Mainly these gateway nodes are having the maximum traffic flows due to their central locations and bridge functionality, also the traffic distribution is uneven at those gateways.This paper proposes a novel GBC-TD (Gateway Based Congestion and Traffic Distribution) model from overcoming the above issues of gateway selection problem by using a load balancer through relaying information, TTL values and flag bits status.The approach is capable of distributing the load over the network.At the primary level of work the approach is proving its efficiency and will shows its strong presence in near future.
