System and method for roaming between wireless networks
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving Point-to-Point over Ethernet (PPPoE) signaling messages from a first device;
receiving radio access network to packet data service node (R-P) signaling messages from a second device;
translating the received PPPoE signaling messages to R-P signaling messages for transmission to the second device; and
translating the received R-P signaling messages to PPPoE signaling messages for transmission to the first device.

Abstract
Systems and methods for roaming between a mobile node and at least one serving node connected to a network are disclosed. The present application provides a method for roaming between. In the system and method, a first communication is established between the mobile node and one of the serving nodes through a control server, when an Ethernet transceiver is used by the mobile node. Ethernet is used for communications between the mobile node and the control server, and a wireless communication technology for communications between the control server and the serving node. The control server also translates communications between Ethernet and the wireless communication technology. In the system and method, a second communication is established between the mobile node and one of the serving nodes with the wireless communication technology, when a wireless communication technology transceiver is used by the mobile node.
