A wireless environmental sensor or monitoring device includes a sensor configured to detect an environmental parameter. A radio module is configured to wirelessly communicate data corresponding to the detected environmental parameter to a remote system. The device also includes logic executable by a processor unit to switch the radio module between a wireless access point (AP) operating mode and a wireless client operating mode.

Wireless environmental sensor

A wireless environmental sensor or monitoring device includes a processor unit, a monitor module for monitoring and collecting data corresponding to an environmental parameter, a radio module configured to enable wireless communication of the data to a remote system, and logic executable by the processor unit to: monitor wireless communication connectivity between the radio module and the remote system; and responsive to detecting a loss of wireless communication connectivity with the remote system, automatically enable a wireless access point (AP) mode of the radio module to initiate a broadcast of a local wireless network identifier to enable a client device to wirelessly locate and connect to the sensor device.
