In a first device in the local area network, a first identifier is determined to identify the first device. A message comprising the first identifier is transmitted from the first device to a second device to arrange a temporary MAC address. A response message relating to the acquisition of the MAC address and comprising the first identifier is transmitted from the second device to the first device. The first device identifies on the basis of the first identifier that the response message is intended for it.

Abstract: A module, and associated method, is engageable with a data terminal. The module includes a storage element for storing an identifier address, used to identify the origin of a packet of data. The module can be released out of positioning at a first data terminal and thereafter utilized at a second data terminal. Thereby, mobility of communications is increased as a user of successive data terminals can identify each successive data terminal with the same identifier.

Abstract: A method of transmitting Internet data between a mobile host and a remote host coupled via the Internet and a GSM/GPRS cellular telephone network. A plurality of Internet Quality of Service (QoS) levels are defined, in terms of the guaranteed transmission delay over the Internet, using RSVP. A guaranteed QoS is mapped to a circuit switched transmission mode (HSCSD) of the telephone network while a Controlled Load and a Best Effort QoS are mapped respectively to two different service levels of a packet switched transmission mode (GPRS) of the radio telephone network. Prior to transmitting Internet data, transmission capacity in the Internet is reserved, if necessary, to ensure the allocated QoS level is met. The transmission is then made over the Internet and the telephone network, using the transmission mode in the telephone network which is mapped to the allocated QoS.

Abstract: The invention relates to an integrated data transfer system, the extensive basis of which is constituted by a general cellular radio system, preferably the GSM system, and in which a radio local area network, preferably the HIPERLAN network, is used for communication between data terminals (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) in small areas with dense communications. In addition, the Internet network (6) is used for fast data transfer. The connection between networks is controlled and handled by a gateway computer (1) located in each radio local area network. In view of the cellular radio system, the gateway computer operates like a base station controller (BSC). The radio local area network consists of the coverage areas or cells (4b, 4c) of the data terminals, and it can be formed, changed and dissolved freely. The computer terminals (3c) preferably have an Internet address enabling mobility, whereby the gateway computer (1) handles the routing to the nodes of the network and the mobile Internet nodes visiting it.

Abstract: The invention relates to integrated office communication systems employing a local area network (LAN) for intra-office communications. In the arrangement according to the invention, no other internal networks are needed in the office because computers (10) are connected to the local area network and telephones (5, 7) are either mobile or cordless phones for which there are low-power room-specific base stations (4, 6) in the local area network (LAN). Connections to the outside world are made via a gateway computer (1) and public cellular radio network. Inside the office, the coverage areas of the small base stations (4, 6, 8) are nanocells (4a) of one or a few rooms. A home or small office user has a similar small base station (14) which is cotifected to said local area network via a public communication network (15) and a gateway equipment (13).
