1. A method comprising:
- initiating, by a first mobile terminal, a connection of the first mobile terminal to a server associated with an external network, via a wireless communication network, to access a resource;
initiating, by the first mobile terminal, an attempt to establish a suitable communication connection between the first mobile terminal and a second mobile terminal, wherein the suitable communication connection is determined based, at least in part, on a communication capability of the second mobile terminal;
initiating, by the first mobile terminal, a transfer of resource related information relating to the resource to the second mobile terminal over the suitable communication connection, wherein the resource related information includes a uniform resource locator of the resource and excludes the resource; and
initiating, by the second mobile terminal, based on the resource related information, a connection to access the resource from the second mobile terminal to the server over the external network without passing via the first mobile terminal.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause an apparatus embedded in a first mobile terminal to at least perform the following steps:
-
initiating a connection of the first mobile terminal to a server associated with an external network, via a wireless communication network, to access a resource; initiating an attempt to establish a suitable communication connection between the first mobile terminal and a second mobile terminal, wherein the suitable communication connection is determined based, at least in part, on a communication capability of the second mobile terminal; and initiating a transfer of resource related information relating to the resource to the second mobile terminal over the suitable communication connection, wherein the resource related information includes a uniform resource locator of the resource and excludes the resource, wherein the one or more sequences of one or more instructions further cause an apparatus embedded in the second mobile terminal to at least perform; initiating, based on the resource related information, a connection to access the resource from the second mobile terminal to the server over the external network without passing via the first mobile terminal. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
