Methods of operating an electronic device are provided. A method of operating a first electronic device that is connected to a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) may include listening for a wireless transmission by a second electronic device on a wireless communications channel. The method may include beginning a randomized delay period in response to determining that the wireless communications channel is clear. Moreover, the method may include transmitting a packet to an access point of the WLAN via the wireless communications channel after the randomized delay period.
