Abstract
During a process to discover local access information from a hotspot provider, a mobile device transmits, to an access node connected to a hotspot within a wireless local area network (WLAN), an Access Network Query Protocol (ANQP) request, where the request is for the local access information provided by the hotspot provider that is a provider of the hotspot. The mobile device receives, from the access node, an ANQP response containing the local access information from the hotspot provider. The local access information is presented to a user of the mobile device.
