Abstract
At a server, a user account established by a user of an AP hosting device is associated with information sufficient to permit a CLIENT to join a WLAN of which the AP is a part. The CLIENT is provided, via an OOB network different from the WLAN, the information sufficient to permit the CLIENT to join the WLAN of which the AP is a part, which information may include a unique identifier for the AP hosting device and information indicative of a network key for the WLAN (e.g., a secret key associated with the AP hosting device, a network key for the WLAN, or information that permits generation of the network key for the WLAN). Thereafter, the CLIENT may use the subject information to join the WLAN of which the AP is a part.
