The Board issued a Final Written Decision finding that the patent claims were unpatentable over various combinations of prior art references.

Reolink Innovation Inc. et al. v.Throughtek Co., Ltd.
The PTAB institution decision found sufficient evidence of obviousness under 35 U.S.C. § 103 for multiple claims related to peer-to-peer connection establishment.

This outcome significantly advances the challenge against the patent's validity in this technology area.
