Patent ID: 8862178

Claim:
A wireless apparatus comprising: a computing device; a baseband device, including at least: a modem processor; an accelerator; non-transitory memory; and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium that stores one or more instructions, that when executed by the computing device, are configured to: associate a first identity of the wireless apparatus with a first wireless network, where the first identity is: a first access point identity, enabling the wireless apparatus to act as an access point with respect to the first wireless network; associate a second identity of the wireless apparatus with a second wireless network, where the second identity is: a client identity, enabling the wireless apparatus to act as a client with respect to the second wireless network; enable the first identity to communicate over the first wireless network using the baseband device; enable the second identity to communicate over the second wireless network using the baseband device, wherein the wireless apparatus is configured to partition the non-transitory memory into a plurality of partitions including a first protected memory space associated with the second identity and not shared with the first identity, and a second protected memory space associated with the first identity and not shared with the second identity, and to store at least a portion of data associated with the second identity in the first protected memory space not shared with which the first identity is prevented from accessing and, in response to a request from the first identity for a first item of data stored in the first protected memory space not shared with the first identity, determine if access to the first data by the first identity is permitted, and at least partly in response to determining that access to the first data by the first identity is permitted, copy the first data into a memory space outside of the first protected memory space, and enable the first identity to access the first data from the memory space outside of the first protected memory space, wherein the first identity and the second identity can concurrently access the first data.
