Claim 11:
12. A first work machine comprising:
a chassis;
a lifting implement coupled to the chassis;
a connectivity module coupled to the chassis, the connectivity module configured to wirelessly communicate with nodes in a network;
one or more processing circuits coupled to the connectivity module, the one or more processing circuits comprising one or more memory devices coupled to one or more processors, the one or more memory devices configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
detect, via the connectivity module, a second work machine within a signal radius of the connectivity module, the second work machine being communicatively coupled to a third work machine in a local area network;
upon detecting the second work machine, automatically join the local area network; and
after joining the local area network, communicate with the third work machine.
