    Abstract: Client adapter and method simplify security deployment in an EPN, including the shared services electrical power lines of a premises. With direct coupling, piggybacked adapter receives network signals and electrical from EPN-connected first adapter through a shared medium port. An authenticating adapter exchanges security management services and information with supplicant adapter. Two or more adapters may be piggybacked. Piggybacked adapters exchange security management service information without rogue intrusion. Exchanged information, stored, is later used to communicate securely. Defined adjacency (neighborhood) information can be exchanged, and a neighborhood established on an EPN, where one authorized neighbors securely communicate.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein to provide location determination capability and applications for an access point. For example, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a network access point includes a processor adapted to control at least one function of the access point device and a memory coupled to the processor. A first interface transfers information between the access point device and a client device, while a second interface transfers information between the access point device and the network. The access point device further includes a receiver that processes global positioning system signals to determine an approximate location of the access point device.

    Abstract: A method and system facilitates enhanced communication between a LAN and a WAN by determining which IP device of the LAN is a gateway and then restricting communication between the LAN and the WAN such that the communication is routed through the gateway. Determining which IP device of the LAN is a gateway can comprise using DHCP protocol to implement a provisioning and setup flow between a WAN bridge and gateway. By restricting communication between the LAN and the WAN such that it is routed through the gateway, features of the gateway such as a firewall and/or parental controls, can be advantageously utilized.

    Abstract translation: 方法和系统通过确定LAN的哪个IP设备是网关,然后限制LAN和WAN之间的通信,从而通过网关路由通信,从而有助于LAN和WAN之间的增强通信。 确定LAN的哪个IP设备是网关可以包括使用DHCP协议来实现WAN桥和网关之间的供应和设置流程。 通过限制LAN和WAN之间的通信,使得其通过网关路由,可以有利地利用诸如防火墙和/或家长控制的网关的特征。
