Method for routing data between a tethered device and multiple packet data networks

A method for routing data between a tethered device and a specific Packet Data Networks (PDN) by a modem device, the method comprising:

• establishing a connection between the modem device and the specific PDN;
• creating, by the modem device, a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) between the tethered device and the specific PDN, the VLAN traversing the connection;
• assigning, by the modem device, an Internet Protocol (IP) address for the VLAN on the tethered device;
• assigning, by the modem device, a Domain Name System (DNS) address of the PDN for the VLAN;
• creating a VLAN network interface on the tethered device, the VLAN network interface corresponding to the VLAN;
• sending an assign IP to interface command from the modem device to the tethered device, the assign IP to interface command including the assigned IP address and the DNS address;
• and
• assigning the received IP address and DNS address to the VLAN at the tethered device.
