Abstract: To address a service interruption while a procedure to change to a dynamic frequency selection (DFS) wireless frequency channel is being performed, a service interruption message is displayed to the user or some other action is taken while a wireless access point changes to the DFS wireless frequency channel. Another action to address the service interruption may be the media content client playing buffered media content stored in a buffer on the media content client to avoid an appearance to the user of an interruption in service. Also, in some embodiments, buffered video is received from the receiving device after the interruption in service has ended so that the media content client may resume playing, and the user may continue to view, the video program from the point where the user left off when the DFS change process and service interruption had started.

Abstract: A remote control is powered by multiple batteries connected in series. The remote control includes a voltage comparison circuit configured to compare a midpoint voltage from a node connecting two of the batteries to a reference voltage. The remote control is able to determine if there is a non-uniform drain rate in the batteries based on the comparison.
