Wireless connectivity module

摘要

A module is provided for imparting wireless functionality to a host device. Software running on an application processor of the module can facilitate data exchange between the host device and a wireless radio of the module by converting data between a host-oriented protocol and a wireless protocol, thereby providing the host device with network connectivity. A configuration of the module can be changed by various command-based methods. Alternatively, the configuration can be changed by software running on a remote device in communication with the module over a wireless link. Flash memory can also be provided for storing the module configuration. Authentication can also be implemented to secure against the execution of unauthorized commands issued to the module. The module can allow for browser-based or command-based data exchange between the remote device and the host device over the wireless link.
