Abstract
A first transceiver of a gaming device receives a validation request from a mobile device. The gaming device determines that the mobile device is authorized to provide remote input to the gaming device and provides a token to the mobile device. A signal strength threshold for a second transceiver of the gaming device is modified from a first signal strength threshold associated with a first distance between the second transceiver and the mobile device to a second signal strength threshold associated with a second distance greater than the first distance. The second transceiver receives a remote connection request from the mobile device. In response to determining that the remote connection request meets the second signal strength threshold and that the remote connection request comprises the token, the gaming device allows the mobile device to provide remote input instructions to the gaming device.
