Patent attributes
Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing wireless functionality, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing faceplate-based wireless device functionality and wireless extension functionality. In various embodiments, one or more antennas, a power adapter, and at least one processor may be attached to an inner surface of a faceplate configured to be attached to a wall. The one or more antennas may be electrically coupled to the power adapter and communicatively coupled to the at least one processor. Alternatively, a wireless functionality device might include one or more antennas, a power adapter, and at least one processor. The wireless functionality device may be attached to an inner surface of a faceplate configured to be attached to a wall. The one or more antennas of the wireless functionality device may be electrically coupled to the power adapter and communicatively coupled to the at least one processor.
