        I have a gut feeling that an AP in a untrusted/hostile environment 
should monitor the usage of the 4 different WMM classes and step up their class 
accordingly. That is in an environment where there is a lot of AC_VO or AC_VI 
traffic the AP should elevate its normal data packets priority to match as not 
too be drowned out by the other senders. Sort of a reciprocal tit-for-tat 
approach, with the goal that the AP will keep access to a decent share of 
airtime. But since I am a layman in these matters, I might be out to lunch on 
this…

Best Regards
        Sebastian
