  • Patent number: 10536950
    Abstract: A method for detecting interferences in wireless networks is disclosed. A salient idea is to use a first access point for detecting an interference disturbing a wireless device associated with a second access point, wherein the device at the origin of the interference is in the range of the first access point, but not in the range of the second access point. Leveraging on the difference of coverage between different wireless networking technologies, the first access point is capable of detecting both a data traffic of a second access point and a short-range interfering device in a same frequency channel.

  • Publication number: 20190044960
    Abstract: To determine if a device is open to the Internet, the device, storing a statistically unique identifier for the device or a group of devices including the device, sends a search request comprising the statistically unique identifier to an Internet search engine, receives a response to the search request from the Internet search engine, determines from the search response whether the statistically unique identifier was found by the Internet search engine, and in case the statistically unique identifier was found found by the Internet search engine, performs an action intended to disable access to the statistically unique identifier from the Internet via the communication interface. The device can also update statistically unique identifier in case the statistically unique identifier was found in the search response.
