Wireless gateway providing data and protocol conversion via network service interfaces

摘要

A wireless gateway comprises a local network interface using a local network interface protocol and a wireless interface providing access to multiple public network interface protocols. The gateway further has a controller and one or more service interfaces connected to the local network interface and to the wireless interface. The controller operates to detect a public network interface protocol currently in use from the multiple public network interface protocols accessible to the wireless interface. Each service interface provides automatic data conversion between the local network interface protocol and the detected public network interface protocol.
