    Abstract: A method and apparatus for coordinating linkable wireless devices operable in a personal area network (PAN) and a vehicle area network (VAN). The method includes the operations of detecting, by a vehicle host device of a VAN, a PAN within a range of the VAN, pairing one or more linkable wireless devices of the PAN to the vehicle host device, creating a PAN identification code and adding the PAN identification code to a list of PANs having linkable wireless devices paired with the VAN, determining a working channel of the PAN and adding the working channel to a scan list in the vehicle host device, and providing a communication link between the linkable wireless devices and a remote device via the vehicle host device. The linkable wireless devices of the PAN are associated with the PAN identification code and the working channel.
