Set up logic for dual interface wireless ip communication device

Abstract

A communication interface device includes a wireless Internet packet (IP) transceiver and a PCMCIA card electrically connected to the transceiver. Also, a universal serial bus (USB) connector is plugged into a hub that holds the PCMCIA card, with a cord extending from the USB connector and terminating in another USB connector. Accordingly, the device can be engaged with the PCMCIA bay of a user terminal or, if a user terminal has no PCMCIA bay, with a USB receptacle of the user terminal, to establish wireless communication. To simplify set-up, a CD containing all operating system versions of PCMCIA and USB drivers is engaged with the user terminal. The terminal's operating system is then automatically determined, and only the drivers associated with that operating system are loaded onto the terminal.

1 - 8 . (canceled) 
     
     
         9 . Device, comprising:
 computer readable storage medium removably engageable with a user terminal;   one or more first communication interface drivers on the computer readable storage medium, each being correlated to a respective first wireless communication system;   one or more second communication interface drivers embodied by the computer readable storage medium, each being correlated to a respective second wireless communication system;   logic embodied by the computer readable storage medium for determining a type of operating system used by the terminal; and   logic, responsive to the logic for determining, for providing at least one first communication interface driver and at least one second communication interface driver to the user terminal.   
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 9 , wherein the logic for providing provides one and only one first communication interface driver and one and only one second communication interface driver to the user terminal. 
     
     
         11 . The device of  claim 10 , further comprising logic for providing a user set-up prompt to the user. 
     
     
         12 . The device of  claim 11 , further comprising logic for automatically defining a driver directory. 
     
     
         13 . The device of  claim 12 , further comprising logic for undertaking diagnostic monitoring. 
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 9 , wherein the logic for determining and providing do not require user input regarding a type of operating system on the user terminal. 
     
     
         15 - 17 . (canceled) 
     
     
         18 . The device of  claim 9 , wherein the first and second communication systems receive signals from a transceiver.
