FIELD: computer engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to an architecture for a computing device to enable to support peer-to-peer communication using a wireless radio, also configured for infrastructure-based communication. Technical result is simplification of controlling communication capability of a wireless device in a peer-to-peer group and infrastructure mode. Said result is provided by a computing device configured to perform wireless communication, comprising: radio device configured to simultaneously connect computing device to infrastructure network and to peer-to-peer group; operating system; memory and processor; driver, configured to implement a plurality of ports in driver as interfaces between driver and operating system.
EFFECT: driver enables operation of multiple ports in multiple modes: infrastructure mode port; peer-to-peer communication port.
