Claim 17:
18. The method of claim 1,
wherein the processing interface is configured to, when the wireless networking device is being used, and in a manner transparent to any layer of the wireless networking device above the processing interface,
(a) identify at least one first portion of the second actual bandwidth of the second wireless transceiver, the first identified portion of the second wireless transceiver comprising a set of given resources,
(b) evaluate whether any of the given resources of the first identified actual bandwidth portion of the second wireless transceiver are unavailable for communication, and
(c) if none of the given resources of the first identified bandwidth portion of the first wireless transceiver are available for communication and if the first identified bandwidth portion of the second wireless transceiver is available for communication, use the second wireless transceiver to transmit the first data stream to the recipient, without requiring disassociation of the recipient from either or both of the first and second actual MAC and PHY interfaces, using a subset of frequencies corresponding only to the given resources of the first identified actual bandwidth portion of the second wireless transceiver that are not unavailable for communication to thereby at least partially satisfy the first wireless bandwidth requirement of the first application; and

wherein the wireless networking device's utilization of the first identified actual bandwidth portion of the second wireless transceiver does not prevent any other wireless networking device from utilizing a range of frequencies corresponding to the remaining portion of the bandwidth availability of the second wireless transceiver for data transmission or reception purposes.
