A system for communication in an oil and gas well, the system including a controller, a first universal wireless adapter (UWA) wirelessly coupled to the controller, where the UWA is coupled to a first field device, a second UWA wirelessly coupled to the controller, where the UWA is coupled to a second field device, where the controller passes a control token among the first and second UWAs based upon communication traffic between the first and second UWA and the first and second field devices respectively. In some embodiments, this control token may be passed between the first and second UWAs depending upon communications between the respective UWAs and their field devices. For example, in the event that communication traffic is greater between the first UWA and the first field device, then the control token is passed to the first UWA. |
