This invention provides a system and method for splitting control and media content signals of a cellular network connection of a mobile station. A mobile station engages in a WAP browsing session with a cellular network connection over an air interface. As a user moves into coverage area of an access point, another browsing session is established between the mobile station and a non-cellular network connection. More specifically, the user's WAP browsing session with a cellular network connection is upgraded to a Web browsing session with a non-cellular network connection. The present invention permits a user to control a Web browser on a remote device by providing user input to the mobile station. In particular, a media content portion of the cellular network connection is split and rerouted to the remote device, and a control portion of the cellular network connection is split and rerouted either via the non-cellular network connection or via the cellular network connection. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION To address the above-mentioned need, a system and method for splitting the aspects of control and media content from a cellular network connection is provided herein. Initially, a position of the mobile station relative to an access point of a non-cellular network connection is determined by measuring a signal strength of the mobile station by the access point. Also, a status of the mobile station is determined when the mobile station is within a proximity of the access point. In particular, the status is requested when the mobile station is engaged in a data session with the cellular network connection and is within a proximity of the access point and, then, the status of the mobile station is received. Next, the mobile station is authenticated for permission to access a non-cellular network connection and services associated with the non-cellular network connection. Thereafter, a media content portion is split from the cellular network connection and rerouted to a remote device via the non-cellular network connection. In particular, a connection of the mobile station is switched from the cellular network connection to the non-cellular network connection, a communication link is assigned from the mobile station to a remote device, and a user input generated at the mobile station is translated into a signal that controls an action exhibited by the remote device. The present invention is also a wireless communication system for switching network connections between at least one mobile station and a gateway. The system comprises a gateway, a mobile station, a first network and a second network. The gateway generates content data and receives control data, and the mobile station generates the control data and receives the content data. The first network is connected to the gateway and is capable of communicating with the mobile station via a first wireless link. The first network transfers the content data from the gateway to the mobile station and the control data from the mobile station to the gateway
