Summary:Coordination among mobile stations enables a terminal device (114) to establish a most appropriate wireless network connection. According to the present invention, a connection request, including network connectivity requirements, is communicated from the terminal device (114) to a first mobile station (116). The first mobile station (116) then transmits the network connectivity requirements to a second mobile station (117-119) that is also capable of establishing a wireless network connection. A determination based in part or in whole on the network connectivity requirements is then made at one of the first and second mobile stations (116 - - 119) which station can provide a most appropriate wireless network connection. A network connection is then established through one of the first and second mobile stations (116 -- 119) based on the determination of which of the first and second mobile stations (116 -- 119) can provide the most appropriate wireless network connection.
