An automobile's maintenance port is wirelessly connected (for example, via an
IEEE 802.11-based connection) to a plurality of gateways/routers that forward automobile
diagnostic data (such as a series of diagnostic codes) to a network analyzer server.
The network analyzer server offers subscribers a service providing analysis of
the received diagnostic data, wherein such analyzed information is transmitted
to one or more predetermined locations (such as to a personal computer of the subscriber
or a mechanic's diagnostic device at a service station). Thus, homeowners and garages
receive the same data and the system eliminates the need for garages to purchase
expensive engine analyzers.
