Abstract:
1. A method for transporting data from a first device to a second device through a limited bandwidth computer network comprising: providing a front-end device comprising an interface to communicate data with at least one first device, said data comprising one of more data packets of a first type; providing a back-end device comprising a wireless interface to wirelessly communicate data with at least one second device, said data comprising one or more data packets of said first type; establishing at least one communication channel coupling the front-end device and the back-end device wherein at least one of the communication channels is configured to transport data between said at least one front-end device and said at least one back-end device in one or more data packets of a second type, which second type differs from said first type; receiving said data comprising one or more data packets of said first type from said first device at said front-end device; encoding said data received by said front-end device from said first computer by converting said data into one or more data packets of said second type, wherein said step of encoding comprises changing characteristics of said data based at least in part on said exchanged quality of service information; transmitting said encoded data from said front-end device to said back-end device over said at least one communication channel configured to transport data in packets of said second type; decoding said encoded data received from said front-end device at said back-end device into data comprising packets of said first type; and wirelessly transmitting said decoded data from said back-end device to a wireless transceiver of said second device.
