Abstract:
1. A method of connecting to a peripheral device, comprising: positioning a remote control in proximity to a compute device and, in response, establishing a first wireless link directly between the remote control and the compute device; transmitting a request for access information for a peripheral device from the compute device to the remote control over the first wireless link; establishing a second wireless link directly between the remote control and the peripheral device; retrieving current access information by the remote control from the peripheral device over the second wireless link, wherein the current access information is provided by a dynamic access information generator in the peripheral device that is configured to generate different access information over time; transmitting the current access information from the remote control to the compute device over the first wireless link; establishing a third wireless link between the compute device and the peripheral device; and connecting to the peripheral device by the compute device using the current access information.
