Abstract: A device having wireless connectivity may be coupled to Internet Protocol (IP) service available in a network, including a wireless local area network (WLAN), local area network (LAN), Ethernet or other suitable Internet access point, by broadcasting a wireless protocol service discovery query requesting information about the IP service available in the network and waiting for a reply from another device having wireless connectivity in the network. The device includes a wireless protocol service discovery query module that broadcasts the wireless protocol service discovery query and waits for the reply from the second device. The scope of the invention also includes a network having such devices with the features described above, as well as a computer program product with a program code that is stored on a machine readable carrier, for carrying out the steps according to the aforementioned method when the computer program is run in a processor module of the first device.

Abstract: The present invention generally describes a method and a corresponding system and network entities to create an account for a terminal capable to establish a call via at least a first and second access technology at a server entity, the server being enabled to handle calls via the at least first and second access technologies. The present invention further generally describes a method and a corresponding system and network entities of routing a call originating from a calling terminal registered to a server, the calling terminal is configured to establish a call via at least a first and second access technologies, to a called terminal configured to be called via at least the first and second access technologies.

Abstract: A system and method for providing mobile assisted, fixed line communication. A device connectable to a mobile network coordinates with a session gateway device that is connected to a fixed line network in order to establish a connection to another gateway device. Signaling over a cellular or other non-fixed line network is used to establish connection parameters relating to a fixed line session. The established connection parameters are transmitted to the respective session gateway devices. Based upon these parameters, the session gateway devices can directly communicate with each other over the Internet or other fixed line network.
