Abstract:
A hotspot provides an open wireless network and a secure wireless network. The open wireless network has no network-level encryption and allows open association therewith. The secure wireless network employs network-level encryption and requires authentication of a received access credential from a client device before allowing association therewith. A system for authorizing the client device for secured access at the hotspot includes an access controller configured to establish an encrypted connection between the client device and a login portal of the hotspot over the open wireless network, and to store a user-specific access credential transmitted via the encrypted connection as a valid access credential in a credential database. The credential database is accessed by wireless access points of the hotspot to authenticate the received access credential from the client device in response to a request from the client device to associate with the secure wireless network.

Claim (Index 32):
A system enabling secured wireless access at a hotspot, the system comprising:\n one or more access points providing an open wireless network having no network-level encryption and allowing open association therewith by a client device; a computer server having one or more processors executing software in order to provide a login portal; and a storage device coupled to the computer server and storing a credential database, the credential database storing a plurality of valid access credentials acceptable for gaining secure wireless access at the hotspot; wherein the login portal establishes an encrypted connection with the client device over the open wireless network and requires a user of the client device to perform a predetermined sign-up process via the encrypted connection; the login portal adds a user-specific access credential as a valid access credential in the credential database; and the login portal transmits instructions to the client device via the encrypted connection, the instructions instructing the user of the client device to switch the client device to a service set identifier (SSID) of a secure wireless network at the hotspot and to authenticate with the secure wireless network utilizing the user-specific access credential; wherein the instructions are displayed to the user by the client device and include both the service set identifier (SSID) of the secure wireless network and the user-specific access credential that is acceptable for associating with that service set identifier (SSID).
