Patent ID: 8902906

Claim:
An apparatus comprising: a computing platform having one mode of operation and another mode of operation, the platform including non-volatile flash memory storage to store machine-executable instructions that when executed result in the platform switching from the another mode to the one mode; in the one mode of operation: the computing platform to include a first entity and a second entity; the first entity to be wirelessly communicatively coupled via a first network and to be identified by a first wireless communication address so as to receive a first flow via the first network; the second entity to be wirelessly communicatively coupled via a second network and to be identified by a second wireless communication address in the second network so as to receive a second flow via the second network; and after transitioning from the one mode to the another mode of operation: the second address has been relinquished; wherein: the first flow is to be processed by a first network stack; and the second flow is to be processed by a second network stack that is independent of the first network stack.
