Abstract
A disclosed method for enabling a seamless authenticated access to an Aggregator's Wi-Fi network includes steps of receiving a request to establish a data session from a mobile device and at a public mobile service provider network, authenticating the mobile device in response to the request to establish the data session, and establishing the data session upon successful authentication. The method further includes steps of receiving an activation key associated with the mobile device from the mobile device and at the public mobile service provider network and recording the activation key against an identification of the mobile device such as a Mobile Directory Number assigned to the mobile device. The activation key is used to generate a password, which is used to authenticate the mobile device request to access the Aggregator's Wi-Fi network.
