A system includes a satellite communications terminal including a computer programmed to provide communications for user devices with a destination network. The computer detects a physical state or change in a physical state specified as a trigger to transfer the communications for the user devices with the destination network from a satellite communications channel to a cellular communications channel. Upon detecting the trigger event, the computer establishes a communications link with a cellular device and provides communications for the user devices with the destination network via the cellular device and the cellular communications channel.

Tethering to a satellite terminal

A system includes a router including a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions executable by the processor to receive a wireless request from a first computing device to initiate a connection mode for a wireless network. The instructions are further executable to join a second computing device to the wireless network under the connection mode. wherein the connection mode allows the second device to join the wireless network without input of a password stored prior to the wireless request.
