Abstract
In systems and methods of controlling a connection between a wireless device and an access point, it is determined that a first wireless device is not authorized to connect to an access point of a first data network. A message is transferred to a second wireless device by a second data network requesting permission for the first wireless device to connect to the access point. A message can be received from the second wireless device granting the first wireless device permission to connect to the access point.
