A method for managing content exchanges in a wireless network comprising: receiving, by a wireless listener module (402,406), a beacon message (230; 416) broadcast by a string broadcast station (220;410,412,414), wherein the beacon message comprises a network information string, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: receiving, by the listener module (402,406), a probe message (232; 422,444,443) by a wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), wherein the message comprises the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800); associating, by the listener module (402,406), the network information string with the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800) the string broadcast station and the wireless station being within range of the listener module;storing, by the listener module (402,406), the network information string and the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800) on a list server device; requesting by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), a list from the list server device of network listed information strings associated with the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800); and receiving by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), in response to the request,_the listed network information strings from the list server device wherein the listed network information strings are associated with content stored in a datastore and in that the method further comprises: selecting, by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), a listed network information string from the listed information strings; requesting, by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), the content associated with the selected listed network information string from the datastore; and receiving, by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), the content in response to the request. receiving, by a wireless listener module (402,406), a beacon message (230; 416) broadcast by a string broadcast station (220;410,412,414), wherein the beacon message comprises a network information string, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: receiving, by the listener module (402,406), a probe message (232; 422,444,443) by a wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), wherein the message comprises the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800); associating, by the listener module (402,406), the network information string with the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800) the string broadcast station and the wireless station being within range of the listener module;storing, by the listener module (402,406), the network information string and the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800) on a list server device; requesting by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), a list from the list server device of network listed information strings associated with the MAC address of the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800); and receiving by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), in response to the request,_the listed network information strings from the list server device wherein the listed network information strings are associated with content stored in a datastore and in that the method further comprises: selecting, by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), a listed network information string from the listed information strings; requesting, by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), the content associated with the selected listed network information string from the datastore; and receiving, by the wireless station (202;442,446;616,618;800), the content in response to the request.
