Patent ID: 10075548

Abstract:
Techniques and systems for operating a device as a communication proxy for other devices are provided. For example, a method, computing device, or computer-program product may be provided, and may include receiving, on a computing device, a device communication using a first transceiver radio and using a connection with a first device, wherein the connection with the first device is established over a first channel of a frequency band, determining that the device communication is from the first device, wherein the computing device and the device are able to connect with a second device, and establishing a connection with the second device over a second channel of the frequency band, wherein the computing device operates as a communication proxy for the first device by using the connection with the second device to exchange communications with the second device for the first device, and wherein the computing device and the first device include Internet of Things devices and share a common cloud network service provider. The method, computing device, or computer-program product may further include transmitting the device communication using a second transceiver radio over the second channel of the frequency band using the connection with the second device.
