摘要:
Manufacture of an information handling system that includes wireless service through a wireless wide area network includes an image having an operating system with a wireless service provider registry entry and an end user wireless service entry. The registry entries are applied upon power up to automatically configure the information handling system's wireless radio to interface with a wireless service and to provision the information handling system on the wireless service. Updates to the wireless service are provided by updates to the registry entries.

The invention provides a system and method for updating a resource to an electronic device. The method provisions a resource to an electronic device by: (a) maintaining the resource at a remote server from the device; and (b) after a triggering event, providing a data transmission to the device containing access information for the resource. The system incorporates the method and comprises: a resource providing information for the device; a server to maintain the resource; a communication link providing the device with access to the resource; a data transmission module for extracting and transmitting access information about the resource to the device; and a data processing module for processing the received information at the device. In the device, a GUI provides information on a topic retrieved from local storage on the device and additional information about the resource is incorporated into the GUI for that topic.

An information handling system includes a plurality of access points, a radio network manager, and a database. The access points couple to form a wireless network. Each access point communicates with at least one mobile client. The radio network manager couples to the access points. The radio network manager is configured to dynamically control the operation of the access points. The database couples to the radio network manager and stores information about the wireless network.

An information handling system router integrates wireless local area networking components and wireless cellular wide area network components to route information between a wireless cellular wide area network and plural information handling systems interfaced with a wireless local area network supported by the wireless local area network components. The wireless cellular wide area network components may include a detachable wireless cellular transceiver to support wireless network interfaces when detached from the router, such as wireless cellular for voice telephone communication or a wireless card for single information handling system communication with the wireless cellular network. Alternatively, the wireless cellular wide area network components may integrate a transceiver that is authorized to communicate with the wireless cellular wide area network by a detachable authorization module, such as a SIM module of a wireless cellular.

A wireless network is provided including a wireless access point (WAP) information handling system (IHS) that communicates with client IHSs via wireless information links. The WAP IHS determines the priority of a communication request from a client IHS and the link rate of that client IHS. The WAP IHS also determines the wireless network bandwidth that is available to the client IHS to carry out the requested communication. If the available network bandwidth is not greater than a threshold needed to assure a predetermined level of quality of service (QoS) for the requested communication, then countermeasures are engaged to free up network bandwidth.

A system and method for configuring devices for wireless communication are disclosed. A method may include transmitting an activation key from an activation broker to a wireless agent. The method may also include transmitting the activation key from the activation broker to a wireless registrar. At least one of the transmission of the activation key to the wireless agent and the transmission of the activation key to the wireless registrar may include transmitting the activation key via a short-range wireless communication technology. In addition, the activation key may include information for authenticating wireless communication between the wireless agent and a wireless access point.
摘要:
A system and method for configuring a network are disclosed. A method may include storing identifying information associated with one or more network devices on a computer-readable medium in an information handling system prior to delivery of the information handling system to a user. The method may also include determining whether the identifying information stored on the information handling system is associated with the network access point. The method may further include automatically configuring network parameters for communication between the network access point and the information handling system in response to a determination that the identifying information stored on the information handling system is associated with the network access point.

The disclosure recites a device, system and method for provisioning resources from a server in a network to a mobile electronic device. The method comprises at the mobile electronic device: generating and sending a network registration request to the server to allow the server to determine whether the mobile electronic device is in a device registry linking resources managed by the server; waiting for a data transmission from the server, the data transmission containing text and a link to the resource that can receive the data transmission at the mobile electronic device; incorporating text and a link from the data transmission into a graphical user interface (GUI) generated on a display of the mobile electronic device to provide an interface to activate the link from the mobile electronic device; and generating an indicator on the GUI that the resource is new, if the resource is new to the mobile electronic device.

摘要:
Methods and systems are disclosed for ultra-wideband (UWB) secure wireless device pairing. Secure pairing between devices for secure UWB communications is conducted over in-band UWB communications to provide secure pairing without requiring a visual confirmation through a graphical user interface (GUI), in particular, for wireless personal area network (WPAN) communications. The secure in-band pairing of wireless UWB devices over a UWB radio link provides considerable advantages over prior secure pairing techniques.
