Abstract
Methods and apparatus are described for enhanced node communication within a wireless node network having nodes and a server. The method begins with a first node associating with a second node, and the first node capturing relevant node information. The first node transmits the relevant node information to the server via the second node operating as an intermediary for indirect communication with the server. A third node captures relevant node information and transmits the relevant node information to the server without using the second node as an intermediary or bridge to the server. Each of the first node, the second node, and the third node may be wireless transceiver-based nodes and respectively implemented as integrated circuits.
