Patent attributes
Various aspects of this disclosure are directed to receiving, by a first computing device, one or more communications from a second device. The one or more communications may be transmitted using a short range wireless communication protocol. The one or more communications may include network configuration information usable to connect the first computing device to a first network and network authentication information. The first computing device may configure the first computing device to connect to the first network using the network configuration information. The first computing device may automatically connect to the first network by at least submitting, using a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) authentication mechanism, the authentication information to a third computing device that manages access to a second network accessible using the first network.
