Abstract
A method and system are disclosed whereby one or more communication devices can automatically switch between physical communication interfaces on an as needed basis. A first (sending) device attempts to initiate communications with another device using one interface at a time. These attempts are made in accordance with a predetermined priority list. If the second device responds to any such interface selected, a communication “channel” is then set up. Once such a channel is set up, the devices can use the channel to negotiate for use of one of the other communication interfaces, if necessary. If the communication is interrupted inadvertently, either device can attempt to reinitiate the communication in accordance with the priority list.
