SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A NETWORK CONNECTED DEVICE

1 . A network connected device, adapted to instruct, comprising:

a local digital memory hardware;

a code storage storing a code;

a hardware processor coupled to said local digital memory hardware and said code storage for executing said code for:

receiving instructions to install a software module in a target device;

acquiring an installation file of said software module from a server via a network;

storing said installation file to said local digital memory hardware;

instructing said target device to participate in establishing a network connection between said network connected device and said target device for installing said installation file on a local memory of said target device; and

instructing said target device to use said network connection for downloading said installation file from said local digital memory hardware for installation.

2 . The network connected device of claim 1 , wherein said receiving instructions to install a software module comprises:

acquiring a list of software modules from said server;

presenting said list of software modules to a user;

receiving said user's selection of one software module of said list of software modules; and

assigning said user's selection of one software module to be said software module.

3 . The network connected device of claim 1 , wherein said hardware processor further executes said code for:

discovering a set of target devices;

presenting to a user a list of target devices comprising said set of target devices;

receiving said user's selection of one target device of said list of target devices; and

assigning said user's selection of one target device to be said target device.

4 . The network connected device of claim 1 , wherein said hardware processor further executes said code for:

receiving installation status information from said target device on said network connection; and

presenting said installation status information to a user.

5 . A method for instructing, comprising:

on a source device:

receiving instructions to install a software module in a target device;

acquiring an installation file of said software module from a server via a network;

storing said installation file to a local digital memory hardware;

instructing said target device to participate in establishing a network connection between said source device and said target device for installing said installation file on a local memory of said target device; and

instructing said target device to use said network connection for downloading said installation file from said local digital memory hardware for installation.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein said receiving instructions to install a software module comprises:

acquiring a list of software modules from said server;

presenting said list of software modules to a user;

receiving said user's selection of one software module of said list of software modules; and

assigning said user's selection of one software module to be said software module.

7 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

discovering a set of target devices;

presenting to a user a list of target devices comprising said set of target devices;

receiving said user's selection of one target device of said list of target devices; and

assigning said user's selection of one target device to be said target device.

8 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

receiving installation status information from said target device on said network connection; and

presenting said installation status information to a user.

9 . A method, comprising:

receiving instructions on a source device to install a software module in a target device;

acquiring an installation file of said software module on a source device from a server via a network;

storing said installation file to a digital memory hardware local to said source device;

said source device instructing said target device to participate in establishing a network connection between said source device and said target device for installing said installation file on a digital memory hardware local to said target device;

said target device participating in establishing a network connection between said target device and said source device;

said source device instructing said target device to use said network connection for downloading said installation file from said digital memory hardware local to said source device for installation;

said target device using said network connection for downloading said installation file from said source device to said digital memory hardware local to said target device for installation; and

said target device installing said installation file to said local digital memory hardware.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein said receiving instructions on a source device to install a software module comprises:

acquiring a list of software modules from said server;

presenting said list of software modules to a user;

receiving said user's selection of one software module of said list of software modules; and

assigning said user's selection of one software module to be said software module.

11 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

discovering on said source device a set of target devices;

presenting to a user a list of target devices comprising said set of target devices;

receiving said user's selection of one target device of said list of target devices; and

assigning said user's selection of one target device to be said target device.

12 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

said target device using said network connection to send installation status information;

said source device receiving said installation status information; and

said source device presenting said installation status information to a user.
