Abstract
A wireless interface device is adapted to be connected to a host computer. On power-up, a list of available hosts is identified in a dialog box on the display of the wireless interface device. Once a host is selected, the node address for the selected host is stored in an EEPROM. On a subsequent power-up of the wireless interface device, a connection is automatically made to the last selected host.
