Method and system for establishing a connection outside a mesh by including network connectivity information in router configuration messages

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon, a computer program having at least one code section for improving wireless devices, the at least one code section being executable by a computer for causing the computer to perform steps comprising:

• establishing a mesh network between or among a plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication (WMC) devices when said devices are in proximity of each other;
• and
• sharing routing scheduling data between or among said plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication devices in said mesh network to enable forwarding of information between or among said plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication devices,
• wherein said shared routing scheduling data enables external network communication for said mesh network when one or more of said plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication devices is communicatively couple to an external network, wherein a peer-client wireless mobile communication device that is currently capable of connecting with the external network broadcasts the routing scheduling data that indicates that the peer-client wireless mobile communication device has external connectivity,
• wherein in response to receiving data from another peer-client wireless mobile communication device in the mesh network targeted towards a destination peer-client wireless mobile communication device in the mesh network, the peer-client wireless mobile communication device forwards the data through the mesh network to the destination peer-client wireless mobile communication device,
• wherein in response to receiving data targeted towards a remote destination device in the external network from another peer-client wireless mobile communication device in the mesh network, the peer-client wireless mobile communication device discards the data unless the data is determined to have sufficient priority for accessing the external network and is therefore forwarded to the external network.

A system for handling data in wireless devices, the system comprising:

• one or more processors that enables establishing a mesh network between or among a plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication (WMC) devices when said devices are in proximity of each other;
• and
• said one or more processors enable sharing of routing scheduling data between or among said plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication devices in said mesh network to enable forwarding of information between or among said plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication devices,
• wherein said shared routing scheduling data enables external network communication for said mesh network when one or more of said plurality of peer-client wireless mobile communication devices is communicatively couple to an external network, wherein a peer-client wireless mobile communication device that is currently capable of connecting with the external network broadcasts the routing scheduling data that indicates that the peer-client wireless mobile communication device has external connectivity,
• wherein in response to receiving data from another peer-client wireless mobile communication device in the mesh network targeted towards a destination peer-client wireless mobile communication device in the mesh network, the peer-client wireless mobile communication device forwards the data through the mesh network to the destination peer-client wireless mobile communication device,
• wherein in response to receiving data targeted towards a remote destination device in the external network from another peer-client wireless mobile communication device in the mesh network, the peer-client wireless mobile communication device discards the data unless the data is determined to have sufficient priority for accessing the external network and is therefore forwarded to the external network.
