Patent ID: 8442585

Claim:
A local device for automatic wireless system configuration supporting a content transfer comprising: a first input component of a local wireless device, the first input component configured to receive a first indication of an identification code, said identification code representing a service that is common among said local wireless device and at least a first remote wireless device for participating in a content transfer with said local wireless device, wherein said service is a labor carried out among the local wireless device and the at least a first remote wireless device for a benefit of one or more wireless devices, wherein said service comprises a service relationship for the local wireless device and a service relationship for the at least a first remote wireless device; a first processor coupled to said first input component; a first wireless adapter coupled to said processor; and a first application running on said first processor, configured to identify at least one service relationship for said local wireless device associated with said identification code, said first application further configured to automatically connect to said first remote wireless device by communicating said identification code over said first wireless adapter to said first remote wireless device, wherein said identification code is communicated to said first remote wireless device based on an indication of said identification code transmitted from the local device to said first remote wireless device over the first wireless adapter, wherein the first remote wireless device comprises a second input component configured to receive the indication of said identification code transmitted from the local wireless device, a second processor coupled to the first remote wireless device, and a second application running on said second processor, said second application configured to identify at least one service relationship for said remote wireless device associated with said identification code, wherein identifying the at least one service relationship for said remote wireless device associated with said identification code comprises parsing one or more wireless transmissions received by the first remote wireless device until a match to the identification code is detected, wherein automatically connecting the local wireless device with the at least a first remote wireless device automatically enables the transfer of content between the local wireless device and the at least a first remote device based on the service relationship for said local wireless device identified based on the identification code and the service relationship for said remote wireless device identified based on the identification code.
