The information is then transmitted to the wireless device via the wireless network using the identification of the wireless device within the wireless network (30).

System and method for assigning a network address to a wireless device

A system for assigning a network address to a wireless device (14) includes a network server (18), a virtual device manager (20), and an address resolution (AR) module (22). In one embodiment, the system is operable to push information from an information source (12) within a computer network to the wireless device. In this embodiment, the network server is coupled to the computer network, and is operable to receive a network identification for the wireless device from the information source (16) and return a network address associated with the wireless device to the information source (24). The virtual device manager is also coupled to the computer network, and may be accessed on the computer network using any of a plurality of network addresses, including the network address associated with the wireless device.

Bypass routing to a mobile device

Routing data from a mobile communication device to a server of mobile communications devices comprises: determining whether a path to the server is available, where the path includes a local connection; determining a type for a data transfer; and where the type for the data transfer is among a set of types predetermined to be suited for local connections to the server, routing the data transfer over the path.

System and method for pushing data from an information source to a mobile communication device including transcoding of the data

Bypass routing to a mobile device

A bypass server is placed in an outgoing link between a mobile device server and a relay used to distribute data from the mobile device server to remote mobile devices to which the data is addressed. Where a direct connection is established between a suitably configured network node (such as a personal computer) and a given mobile device, the bypass server may form a local connection with the network node and divert along the local connection those packets that are addressed to the given mobile device. As such, a lower cost/higher bandwidth local communication path between the given mobile device and the mobile device server may be established, when compared to the conventional remote communication path. The local communication path may be especially useful for bulk data transfers.
