Abstract
A media switching apparatus automatically switches a user device between wired and wireless service mediums of communications networks. The switching apparatus includes a protocol stack having a network layer, a logical link control, a first set of lower layers specific to a wired service medium and a second set of lower layers specific to a wireless service medium. A selector is responsive to the availability of a wired service medium for selecting the first set of lower layers and is further responsive to the non-availability of a wired service medium and the availability of a wireless service medium for selecting the second set of lower layers.
