Abstract:
A device wirelessly receives first and second identifiers contemporaneously from a network. The first identifier indicates that the network operates in a first mode that is not secure. The second identifier indicates that the network operates in a second mode that is secure. In response to wirelessly receiving the first and second identifiers, the device wirelessly connects to the network in the first mode to determine whether the network accepts the device for the second mode, irrespective of whether the network previously accepted the device for the second mode, and irrespective of whether the device already stores authentication information for the second mode. In response to determining that the network accepts the device for the second mode, the device wirelessly connects to the network in the second mode to securely communicate with the network in response to the authentication information.
