Patent Images
1. A wireless apparatus comprising:
- a wireless communication port configured to acquire a representation of its environmental context;
a traversal rules base storing a plurality of traversal rules sets, each traversal rules set governing selection of a wireless profile and comprising contextual criteria;
a profile database storing a plurality of available wireless profiles for the wireless communication port; and
a profile selection module configured to;
select a selected traversal rules set from the plurality of traversal rules sets by comparing the representation of the environmental context to the contextual criteria of the traversal rules sets,identify a desired profile from the available wireless profiles by traversing profiles according to the selected traversal rules set, andconfigure the wireless communication port to operate according to the desired profile.

Abstract
2Wireless devices capable of supporting multiple wireless configuration profiles are presented. A wireless device determines an environmental context, which is used to select a profile traversal method. A profile selection module configures itself to traverse available profiles according the traversals method to identify an acceptable profile. Once identified, the wireless device'"'"'s communication port is configured to operate according to the profile.
