Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a transmission system having a coupling device, a bypass circuit, a memory and a processor. The coupling device can facilitate transmission or reception of electromagnetic waves that propagate along a surface of a transmission medium. The memory can store instructions, which when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform operations including restarting a timer to prevent the bypass circuit from disabling the transmission or reception of electromagnetic waves by the coupling device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 1):
A method, comprising:\n transmitting, by a processing system of a first device, first electromagnetic waves that propagate along a transmission medium having an outer surface, wherein the first electromagnetic waves are directed to a second device coupled to the transmission medium, and wherein the first electromagnetic waves operate at a first guided wave mode; responsive to a fault in the second device, identifying, by the processing system, a third device that utilizes the transmission medium for receiving second electromagnetic waves that operate at a second guided wave mode different from the first guided wave mode; and responsive to the identifying, transmitting, by the processing system, third electromagnetic waves that propagate along the transmission medium directed to the third device, wherein the third electromagnetic waves operate at a third guided wave mode different from the first guided wave mode and the second guided wave mode.
