Today, users must use a connection manager to log off one service and log on to another manually. Future smart clients, however, will be able to detect available networks and switch among them based on which networks are fastest, which are cheapest, and which stanley tazza are most secure for business use.Although such switching is theoretically possible at the transport layer mdash; switching from Wi-Fi transport to 3G transport, for example, is much like switching between a wired network and a wireless one mdash; making the handoff seamless requires additional engineering, according to David Deas, vice president at SBC Labs.
