Patent number: 8255681Abstract: A network and associated methods and apparatus are described. The network includes a wireless access node which is operable to receive first packets from a plurality of wireless computing devices attempting to access the network. Each of the first packets corresponds to one of a plurality of traffic types. At least one of the traffic types corresponds to an encrypted wireless protocol. The wireless access node is configured to associate one of a plurality of identifiers with each of the first packets. Each of the plurality of identifiers corresponds to one of the plurality of traffic types. The wireless access node is further configured to transmit all first packets received from the wireless computing devices to a gateway on the network regardless of destination addresses associated with the first packets. The gateway is operable to determine that a particular one of the first packets from a first one of the wireless computing devices is directed to a second computing device on the network.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2005Date of Patent: August 28, 2012Assignee: Ibahn General Holdings CorporationInventors: Brett Thomas Molen, Jan M. DeHoop, Nichol Fife Draper, Richard L. Ehlers
