Wireless gateway

1 . A wireless gateway, comprising:

a local network interface;

a wireless interface;

a controller connected to said local network interface and to said wireless interface; and

one or more service interfaces connected to said local network interface and to said wireless interface;

wherein each service interface provides data conversion between two services.

2 . The wireless gateway of claim 1 , wherein:

said controller selects one service interface for communication between a first service corresponding to data received through said local network interface and a second service corresponding to data received through said wireless interface, and

said selected service interface provides data conversion between said first service and said second service.

3 . The wireless gateway of claim 2 , wherein:

said selected service interface provides transcoding of data between said first service and said second service.

4 . The wireless gateway of claim 2 , wherein:

said selected service interface provides protocol conversion between said first service and said second service.

5 . The wireless gateway of claim 1 , wherein:

said controller provides routing of data between said local network interface and said wireless interface.

6 . The wireless gateway of claim 1 , wherein:

said local network interface supports an Ethernet connection.

7 . The wireless gateway of claim 1 , wherein:

said wireless interface supports a CDMA connection.

8 . The wireless gateway of claim 1 , wherein:

said wireless interface supports a Wi-Fi connection.

9 . The wireless gateway of claim 1 , wherein:

said wireless interface supports a Bluetooth connection.

10 . A method of network communication using a gateway, comprising:

receiving a session request to open a network session from a client through a first interface of a gateway, wherein said session request indicates a communication service;

selecting a network service that matches said communication service; and

sending a service request to a network server through a second interface, wherein said network server supports said selected network service;

wherein said selected network service has a corresponding service interface that provides data conversion between said selected network service and said communication service.

11 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

establishing a connection for communication between said first interface and said second interface; and

sending data across said established connection.

12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

transcoding data to be sent through said connection using said service interface.

13 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

performing protocol conversion for data to be sent through said connection using said service interface.

14 . The method of claim 10 , wherein:

said communication service and said network service are not directly compatible.

15 . The method of claim 10 , wherein:

said first interface is a LAN interface supporting a LAN connection.

16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein:

said LAN interface supports an Ethernet connection.

17 . The method of claim 10 , wherein:

said second interface is a wireless interface supporting a wireless connection.

18 . The method of claim 18 , wherein:

said wireless interface supports a CDMA connection.

19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein:

said wireless interface supports a Wi-Fi connection.

20 . The method of claim 18 , wherein:

said wireless interface supports a Bluetooth connection.

21 . A system for network communication using a gateway, comprising:

means for receiving a session request to open a network session from a client through a first interface of a gateway, wherein said session request indicates a communication service;

means for selecting a network service that matches said communication service; and

means for sending a service request to a network server through a second interface, wherein said network server supports said selected network service;

a service interface corresponding to said selected network service that provides data conversion between said selected network service and said communication service.

22 . The system of claim 21 , further comprising:

means for establishing a connection for communication between said first interface and said second interface; and

means for sending data across said established connection.

23 . The system of claim 22 , further comprising:

means for transcoding data to be sent through said connection using said service interface.

24 . The system of claim 22 , further comprising:

means for performing protocol conversion for data to be sent through said connection using said service interface.

25 . A computer program, stored on a tangible storage medium, for use in network communication using a gateway, the program comprising executable instructions that cause a computer to:

process a session request to open a network session from a client through a first interface of a gateway, wherein said session request indicates a communication service;

select a network service that matches said communication service; and

send a service request to a network server through a second interface, wherein said network server supports said selected network service;

wherein said selected network service has a corresponding service interface that provides data conversion between said selected network service and said communication service.
