Abstract: Gateway devices can use dual cellular interfaces, each assignable to at least one of a plurality of network services, to provide reliable communications for client machines. A gateway device can use one of the dual cellular interfaces assigned to a first network service as a primary interface and the other assigned to a second network service as a hot backup interface. The backup interface remains connected to a cellular network while communications are routed on the primary interface. Accordingly, the gateway device can rapidly switch communications between from the primary interface to the backup interface. Applications, for example, for ATM payment processing, vending machine telemetry, point of sale payment processing, kiosk internet connectivity, remote monitoring and control, mobile or electronic health, and remote information displays, may run on the gateway devices, on servers, on user devices, or a combination of these devices.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for providing secure communication secure machine-to-machine communications between a client machine and a gateway device and to authenticate client machines. An example method may include retrieving client machine identification criteria and retrieving an identifier of a client machine. The method may determine whether the identifier of the client machine is within the client machine identification criteria. If the identifier of the client machine is not within the client machine identification criteria, the method drops the connection between the client machine and the gateway device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for accessing data from one or more remote devices and providing data to remote devices installed behind one or more firewalls are provided. The remote devices are configured to automatically detect network connectivity and to open a network connection to a remote port access (RPA) server. The remote devices initiate the connection with the RPA server enabling the connection to be established through the firewall. A client device establishes a network connection to the RPA server in order to access data from or to provide data to one or more of the remote devices. The RPA server acts as an intermediary between the RPA server and the remote devices that receives data from the client device and sends the data to the remote device and receives data from the remote devices and sends the data to the client device.

Abstract: A host computer is coupled to a plurality of peripheral devices through a single parallel port in the host computer. A terminal adapter connected to the host computer parallel port includes a plurality of ports for connection to the plurality of peripheral devices. A host interface memory in the host computer receives control structures containing control and status information and data for peripheral device operation from device drivers in the host computer. The host interface memory buffers the control structures and a port interface operating through the host and terminal adapter parallel ports transports the control structures from the host computer to the terminal adapter. In the terminal adapter, a terminal adapter interface memory holds a mirror image of the contents of the host memory and the terminal interface accesses the terminal adapter interface memory to obtain control data structures which are used to operate the peripheral devices.
