How do wireless devices within a BSS access an available channel?
Channels are used sequentially in round-robin fashion by each device in the BSS.

Devices ask permission to use a channel by sending the AP a Request to Send message.

Every device within the BSS is assigned its own channel and has its own dedicated connection.
A device sends data and if it senses collisions it waits a predetermined time before re-sending on a different
channel.
