Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate communication between devices that are configured according to different wireless network infrastructures. A subscriber access device may include a proxy having a virtual station and a virtual P2P client, and the subscriber access device may be conductively connected to an access point and a P2P group owner. The P2P group owner may establish a P2P group including one or more P2P clients that are within range of the subscriber access device. The proxy may bridge traffic between a legacy network and a P2P group. For example, the proxy may forward messages received over a legacy network to one or more P2P clients included within a P2P group, and the proxy may forward messages received from a P2P client of the P2P group to one or more devices configured to communicate with the subscriber access device over the legacy network.
