摘要:
Methods and apparatus in a wireless device for use in maintaining appropriate authentication credentials for receiving a message service provided by a service network which is external to a wireless network are described. The wireless device receives, via the wireless network, a data session configuration file which includes a list of a plurality of wireless networks mapped against authentication credentials associated with each said wireless network. The list includes authentication credentials associated with the wireless network. The wireless device submits, via the wireless network, the authentication credentials for establishing a data session via the wireless network. Then, the wireless device receives, in the data session via the wireless network, the message service provided by the service network. Prior to receiving the file, the wireless device may maintain default authentication credentials associated with a default wireless network, submit via the default wireless network the default authentication credentials for establishing a data session via the default wireless network, and receive in the data session via the default wireless network the message service provided by the service network.

Methods and apparatus of a wireless portable communication device for maintaining appropriate authentication credentials for accessing a data application maintained in a service network are provided. A default access point name (APN) or network access identifier (NAI) is maintained in memory of the wireless device. The wireless device submits, via a default wireless network, the default APN or NAI for establishing a data session in the default wireless network. The wireless device is then able to receive, in the data session via the default wireless network, a message service using the common data application maintained in the service network. In response to a change in service subscription for the wireless device, the wireless device receives, via a current cellular network, a current APN or NAI and stores it in its memory. The wireless device then submits, via the current wireless network, the current APN or NAI for establishing a data session in the current wireless network. The wireless device is then able to receive, in the data session via the current wireless network, the message service using the common data application maintained in the service network.
摘要:
A method (200) and an apparatus (300) in a wireless portable communication device (102) for maintaining appropriate authentication credentials required for a common data application in a current service network are provided. A method (400) in a wireless communication network (106) for providing current authentication credentials required for the common data application accessible through the wireless communication network (106) is also provided. The wireless portable communication device (102) has default authentication credentials required for the common data application in a default service network (106), receives (204) a data session configuration file including authentication credentials based upon a predetermined condition, prioritizes (206) between the default authentication credentials and the received authentication credentials, and uses (208) the authentication credentials having higher priority for the common data application in the current service network (110). The wireless communication network (106) maintains (404) the current authentication credentials indicative of currently required authentication credentials for the common data application, detects (406) a predetermined condition for transmitting the data session configuration file, and transmits (408) the data session configuration file having the current authentication credentials. Upon receiving (410), the wireless communication network (106) allows (412) proper access to the common data application upon receiving the current authentication credentials.
摘要:
Techniques in a wireless device for use in accessing a common data application with a service network which is external to a plurality of wireless networks are described. The device receives a data session configuration file which includes a list of the plurality of wireless networks mapped against authentication credentials associated with each wireless network. The device communicates with a current one the wireless networks. The device selects from the list one of the authentication credentials that is associated with the current wireless network. The device submits, via the current wireless network, the selected authentication credentials for establishing a packet data session via the current wireless network. The device then accesses, via the current wireless network using the packet data session, the common data application with the service network which is external to the current wireless network.

A wireless router employing a technique to couple a plurality of host services or host systems and a plurality of wireless networks. A method to route data items between a plurality of mobile devices and a plurality of host systems through a common wireless router. A point-to-point communication connection is preferably established between a first host system and a common wireless router, a mobile network message at a mobile device is generated, the mobile network is transmitted via a wireless network to the common wireless router which in turn routes a data item component of the mobile network message to the appropriate host service.
摘要:
A method and system for monitoring the health of a wireless telecommunication network. Network health is monitored without placing an administrative burden on the carrier network itself, instead, this burden is placed on components that lie outside the carrier network and pass communications through it. The data service provider infrastructure sends a request to a mobile device, asking that it return data regarding its location. The carrier networks handling the request insert location information into the packet that is sent to the mobile device, but this information is not sent to the data service provider infrastructure itself. The mobile device harvests this location information from the packets it receives and inserts it in a response packet that finds its way back to the data service provider infrastructure. The data service provider infrastructure is able to collate this location data and to analyze it, determining the carrier network's health.
摘要:
A host server is operative to control the pushing of user data messages to a plurality of mobile communication devices adapted to communicate in a wireless communication network. In particular, the host server is adapted to cause, for each one of the mobile communication devices operating in the wireless communication network, user data messages to be pushed to a mobile communication device via a packet data connection; receive, from a serving node in the wireless communication network, an IP notification message having an IP destination address of the host server and including an identification or address that identifies one of the mobile communication devices, the IP notification message being produced in response to a termination of packet data connectivity for the identified mobile communication device; and in response to receiving the IP notification message, at least temporarily refrain from pushing user data messages to the identified mobile communication device. The IP notification message may be formatted and communicated based on an existing protocol, such as Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), or any other suitable protocol.

摘要:
A messaging server forwards emails to mobile communication devices of users to whom the emails were respectively addressed. An antivirus server determines whether an email addressed to a user of a mobile communication device, to be forwarded by the messaging server to the mobile communication device, is infected with a virus. In response to determining the email is infected with a virus, a bulletin generator transmits, to the mobile communication devices besides the mobile communication device of the addressee of the email determined to be infected, an all points bulletin message disclosing the existence of the virus. The bulletin message is transmitted directly to, instead of via email to, the wireless mobile communication devices.
