An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus, comprising a network adapter configured for wireless communication using more than one technology using distributed management and wherein the network adapter is configured to share a plurality of shared hardware components by automatically turning all other comms to OFF when one comm is turned to ON.

Techniques for distributed management of wireless devices with shared resources between wireless components

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for heterogeneous secure associations in Wireless Fidelity Personal Area Networks (WiFi PAN), comprising designating as a regular mobile node (MN) a MN which establishes a security association with a PAN Master as it advertised by the PAN Master and designating as an outstanding MN as a MN which establishes a security association which differs from that advertised by the PAN Master; and differentiating by the PAN Master between subscribed and not subscribed multicast packets and if a currently processed frame is sent to a subscribed multicast address and both the Regular MN and the Outstanding MN are subscribed to the multicast address, then the PAN Master will convert the frame to unicast and will send to each subscribed Outstanding MN using its unicast security model and to regular MN as regular multicast frame.

Methods, apparatus and systems configured for heterogeneous secure associations in Wi-Fi PAN

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, apparatus and system of selectively scanning a wireless communication band. In some demonstrative embodiments the method may include, for example, selectively scanning in response to a request to scan a wireless communication band, at least part of the wireless communication band based on a user-customized scanning profile. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Device, system, and method of selectively scanning a wireless communication band

Briefly, a method and apparatus that may enable roaming of a station from a first access point to a second access point by presenting a power saving mode to the first access mode while establishing a secured connection with the second access point.
