1. Arrangement for the wireless connection of terminal devices (HS1, HS2, HS3, PDA) to a communication system, with a) a data packet network (LAN) for the transmission of data packets using network addresses (IP1, IP2) valid within the network, b) at least one transition device (GW1, GW2) coupled to the data packet network (LAN), to which at least one short-range radio module (BT1, BT2) is coupled, with the transition device (GW1, GW2) having a coupling table (KTAB) with terminal device addresses (RN1, RN2, RN3, MA) of terminal devices (HS1, HS2, HS3, PDA) located within the radio range of at least one short-range radio module (BT1, BT2), c) a server (S) coupled to the data packet network (LAN) for controlling connections to the terminal devices (HS1, HS2, HS3, PDA), with the server having an allocation table (ZTAB) in which a network address (IP1, IP2) of the particular transition device (GW1, GW2) is allocated in each case to a terminal device address (RN1, RN2, RN3, MA) of a terminal device (HS1, HS2, HS3, PDA), to which transition device (GW1, GW2) a short-range radio module (BT1, BT2) in whose radio range this terminal device (HS1, HS2, HS3, PDA) is located, is coupled, and d) a packet-based alignment protocol (AP) for the dynamic alignment of the allocation table (ZTAB) with the coupling table (KTAB).
