  • Patent number: 9485116
    Abstract: An apparatus and system automatically process and route data messages or packets, via a cellular network, from analog or digital data devices, wherein the routing is accomplished without a need for voice call origination on the cellular network. The apparatus includes a fixed cellular communication device and may also include a fixed wireless RF communication device and/or a mobile wireless RF transceiver. The fixed cellular communication device formats and transmits, on a cellular network, data packets received from data devices directly connected to the fixed cellular communication device and/or data packets received wirelessly from the fixed wireless RF communication device and/or from the mobile wireless RF transceiver. The fixed cellular communication device has a physical form of an AC wall adapter.

  • Patent number: 9402326
    Abstract: A fixed relocatable wireless device (FRWD) (100) includes a self-contained communications system for providing full-time connectivity to the Internet and/or to Internet protocol (IP) addresses via a built-in wired and/or wireless interface. Once configured, the FRWD allows an external local device access to the Internet without drivers or additional software in the local device, and without an external computer. The FRWD includes an operating system and application software. The FRWD utilizes a cellular modem (830) as back-haul for connectivity to the Internet. The FRWD allows a voice call to be originated and/or terminated over cellular voice channels. The FRWD includes circuitry (800) and antennas (802 and 804) that are completely enclosed in a housing (110) shaped as an AC wall adapter.
