A network communications controller, such as a piconet controller that is new to an area, can monitor for and receive inter-network transmission from adjacent networks and the controller can monitor the received transmission and detect a synchronization parameter of the adjacent networks. The parameter can be an inter-network synchronization beacon that is transmitter on a narrowband channel. The controller can select an unoccupied narrowband channel to transmit inter-network synchronization information and the selected an unoccupied wideband channel to conduct intra-network transmissions. The wideband channel can be associated with the narrowband channel. Other embodiments are also disclosed." The patent application was filed on Dec. 3, 2008 (12/315,471).
