[0001] A method for controlling access to a wireless Access Network (AN) (25) by a wireless communication device (23,31,41) The device stores a Device Access Priority (DAP) level based on characteristics of the device. When the device has data to send the device receives an overhead message (26) from the AN containing a Network Access Priority (NAP) parameter defining a minimum priority level for initiating network access. The device determines whether its DAP level is equal to or greater than the NAP parameter. If not the device periodically repeats the receiving and determining steps until the stored DAP level is determined to be equal to or greater than the NAP parameter received from the AN. When the stored DAP level is equal to or greater than the NAP parameter the device initiates network access. The device may perform and pass a Persistence Test before transmitting the data on an access channel (ACH).
