Claim Text:
1. A method, comprising: registering, by a processor, a first communication module of a communication device with an endpoint adapter, the first communication module registering with the endpoint adapter via a first communication network that uses a first addressing schema to contact the communication device; enabling, by the processor, a communication session to occur while the first communication module is registered with the endpoint adapter, the communication session utilizing a first media type that is supported by the first communication network; registering, by the processor, a second communication module of the communication device with the endpoint adapter, the second communication module registering with the endpoint adapter via a second communication network that uses a second addressing schema to contact the communication device; after the second communication module has registered with the endpoint adapter, utilizing, by the processor, the second communication module to add a second media type to the communication session while the communication session is in-progress, wherein the second media type comprises a media type not supported by the first communication network, wherein the communication session is initiated when the communication device is within communication proximity of the first communication network and not within communication proximity of the second communication network; determining, by the processor, that the communication device has moved within communication proximity of the second communication network; and after determining that the communication device has moved within communication proximity of the second communication network, allowing, by the processor, the second communication module to register with the endpoint adapter such that the second media type can be added to the communication session.
