ABSTRACT:
Embodiments control access to a wireless network providing communication for wireless traffic and controlled by a wireless access point to assure quality of service for designated traffic by assigning all communication of the designated traffic to use one of the priorities on the wireless network, requiring that ones of the wireless traffic wanting to communicate using the one of the priorities and higher ones of the priorities and using a distributed medium access protocol submit bandwidth reservation requests to the wireless access point, granting a bandwidth reservation to one of the wireless traffic for communication by the wireless access point in response to a bandwidth reservation request upon bandwidth being available on the wireless network, and allowing other ones of the wireless traffic to communicate using lower ones of the priorities without requiring bandwidth reservation requests.
