A method of communication by a network device (102) over a communication medium and the network device (102) itself are described. The method comprising selecting a random number value, selecting a back-off interval (512) based at least in part on the random number value, initiating the back-off interval (512), gaining control of the communication medium after the back-off interval (512) has elapsed and no transmission are detected on the communication medium and selecting another back-off interval (514, 516) when transmissions are detected on the communication medium. |
