Media exchange network supporting remote peripheral access
First Claim
1. A method for providing remote access, comprising:
- receiving a request by a media management system associated with a native network to transfer information to or from a media device, wherein the media device is communicatively coupled to a non-native network;
authenticating the request by the media management system; and
routing the information based on a profile of the media device, the profile being stored in at least one of;
the media management system and the media device, wherein the profile comprises one or more roaming parameters for routing the information when the media device is communicatively coupled to the non-native network.

Abstract
Systems and methods that provide remote access are described. In one embodiment, a system may include, for example, a plurality of communication devices and a media device. The plurality of communication devices may be operatively coupled to a network and may include, for example, a native communication device. The media device may be operatively coupled to the native communication device and the network. The media device may be associated with the native communication device and the network and may be capable of exchanging media content with the plurality of communication devices and the network. A profile of the media device may be stored in at least one of the media device and the native communication device. The profile may include, for example, information related to managing the media content when the media device is roaming.

6. A system operable to provide remote access, comprising:
-
a media device operable to roam in a non-native network by communicatively coupling to the non-native network, wherein the media device is operable to generate a request to a communication device communicatively coupled to a native network to transfer information to or from the media device; and a storage operable to store a profile of the media device, wherein the storage is in the media device, the profile comprising roaming parameters for routing of the requested information to or from the media device after the generated request is authenticated. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A media management system operable to communicatively couple with a native network, comprising:
-
a storage operable to store a profile of a media peripheral; at least one processor operable to; receive a request for a data file associated with the media peripheral; determine a location of the media peripheral; access the profile of the media peripheral, wherein the profile includes one or more roaming parameters for routing data files associated with the media peripheral; and when the location of the media peripheral is determined as in a non-native network, route the data file to a destination device identified by the roaming parameters in the profile of the media peripheral. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
