Abstract

Aspects automatically direct data requests from a specific application of a mobile programmable device to a designated WiFi network pathway without interaction from a mobile device user in response to determining that an initial data network pathway does not meet a satisfactory service threshold for forwarding the data requests to an event web server. In response to determining that the mobile device is within communication range of a WiFi service node in communication with a first WiFi pathway designated for access by the specific application for communications with the event web server, the mobile device processor automatically executes an authentication procedure with the WiFi service node to gain access to the first WiFi pathway without requiring a user of the mobile device to log in to the first WiFi pathway or to accept a connection to the first WiFi pathway, and uses the first WiFi pathway.
