    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods for tracking the locations of mobile asset(s). An exemplary system may include a module physically associated with a mobile asset and a remote server that communicates with the module via access point(s) providing access to a communication network including a domain name server. The module may scan for broadcast(s) by a first access point, the broadcast(s) including a first broadcast incorporating a first identifier associated with the first access point; determine a signal strength associated with the broadcast(s); encapsulate into DNS request packet(s) data incorporating the first identifier and the signal strength; and communicate, using DNS tunneling, the DNS request packet(s) to the remote server via the access point(s) and the domain name server. The remote server may estimate the location of the module based on the data incorporating the first identifier and the signal strength received in the DNS request packet(s).
