Patent CA-2552854-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MADHANI SUNIL
IPC: H04L29/08
Filed: 2004-09-15
Abstract: A system and method are provided for adding network entities and appliances to a mobile wireless Internet. A graphical user interface on a user appliance or network entity is used to start a plug and play process. In the plug and play process a temporary EP address is assigned to the entity or appliance. The temporary address is tested for uniqueness. A search mechanism identifies and contacts a plug server that uses information from the user/operator to authenticate the user and/or validate subscription information. Upon authentication or validation the plug server dispatches an inspector agent to determine the software needs of the new entity or appliance. The plug server obtains the requested software from the software inventory and the inspector agent downloads the software onto the new entity or appliance and installs it therein. The element then uses the DRCP/DHCP client to obtain a new IP  address. Link layer and topology information are selected and downloaded to the entity or appliance and the unit is plugged into the network for mobile wireless Internet access.

Title: Multi-level wager games with autocomplete
Inventor: NAICKER THEO
IPC: A63F1/00
Filed: 2006-07-26
Abstract: Multi-level wager games are described in which play at higher levels in the game continues even if the player does not achieve a winning result for play at a given level. Such play at the higher levels may be completed automatically in an autocomplete mode, without any additional player interaction. A payout is awarded if the outcome of play at any of the higher levels is a winning result in accordance with a special pay table designed for such autocomplete mode. In one embodiment, the special pay table is constructed such that the odds of obtaining a winning result in the autocomplete mode are less than the odds of obtaining a winning result for play at the first level.  For example, in a two level poker game, if the player loses in the first level with only a pair of sixes (pair of Jacks or better needed for a winning hand in the first level), the cards in the second hand are revealed and the player obtains a winning result for second level hand only if the hand is dealt a Royal Flush.
