Abstract:
Configurations are described for maintaining a continuity and quality of wireless signal connection between a mobile device and systems accessible through the internet. In particular, configurations are disclosed to address the challenge of a mobile device that moves through a physical environment wherein the best wireless connectivity performance is achieved by switching between available connection sources and constantly evaluating a primary connection with other available connections that may be switched in to become a new primary connection. The mobile device may be self-propelled or carried by some other mobilizing means.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for maintaining wireless connectivity between a mobile controller and a remote controller, comprising:\n a. providing a wireless adaptor operatively coupled to the mobile controller and configured to have a background scanning mode wherein connectivity is maintained between the mobile controller and the remote controller on a first channel while scanning is conducted to seek an alternate connection between the mobile controller and the remote controller on a second channel; b. operating the wireless adaptor to automatically:\n i. scan to find available wireless access points; \n ii. connect to the remote controller through a first wireless access point with the first channel and evaluate the connectivity of the connection; \n iii. while retaining connectivity with the remote controller through the first channel, connect to the remote controller through a second wireless access point with the second channel and evaluate the connectivity of the connection; \n iv. compare the evaluated connectivities of the first channel and second channel to find a highest evaluated channel and a lowest evaluated channel; and \n v. maintain connectivity between the mobile controller and remote controller through the highest evaluated channel.
