Abstract

In a method, implemented by a first device connected to a wireless network, for assisting in provisioning a second device for connection to the wireless network, the first device receives, via the wireless network and from a remote server, a public key corresponding to a private key stored in the second device. The first device uses the public key to encrypt network security information stored in the first device, the network security information including information that is useable to securely connect to the first wireless network. The first device wirelessly transmits, for reception by the second device, a signal carrying the encrypted network security information.
