Abstract:
1. A communication device for sending and receiving data via a cellular network comprising: a cellular transceiver that transmits and receives data on a cellular network via data packets, wherein transmission of the data packets takes place without voice call origination on the cellular network; a non-cellular RF transceiver for receiving signals from an external non-cellular RF device that is external to the communication device, wherein the cellular transceiver re-transmits on the cellular network data packets received by the non-cellular RF transceiver from the external non-cellular RF device; a microcontroller including a memory storage means, wherein the microcontroller controls functionality of components of the communication device and transmission of data through the communication device; an Ethernet transceiver; and a power supply which supplies power to each component of said communication device, wherein the communication device is adapted in a physical form of an AC wall adapter that includes an AC plug on a first side of the AC wall adapter and an Ethernet jack on one or more sides of the AC wall adapter other than the first side.
