Uplink airtime fairness through basic service set steering

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• means for determining that a first client device is monopolizing a channel of a first basic service set (BSS) associated with a first BSS identifier (BSSID);
• and
• means for steering the first client device to a second BSS that is throttled with respect to the first BSS based at least in part on the determination, the second BSS associated with a second BSSID different from the first BSSID.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing code for wireless communication, the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:

• determine that a first client device is monopolizing a channel of a first basic service set (BSS) associated with a first BSS identifier (BSSID);
• and
• steer the first client device to a second BSS that is throttled with respect to the first BSS based at least in part on the determination, the second BSS associated with a second BSSID different from the first BSSID.
