20130065557 | METHOD OF AND SYSTEM FOR DATA ACCESS OVER DUAL DATA CHANNELS WITH DYNAMIC SIM CREDENTIAL - A method and apparatus provide access to communication services using dynamically assigned user credentials. The method includes establishing a communication connection with a first communication network (such as GSM, UMTS, CDMA, or LTE networks) using a real user credential (e.g., a SIM, a USIM, or an R-UIM card or certificates) in a first communication module, utilizing the first communication connection to request the dynamically assigned user credential from a remote management system, and registering a second communication module into the second communication network. The second communication connection is then tethered to allow other devices to access the Internet or other network. | 03-14-2013 |
20120264402 | METHOD OF AND SYSTEM FOR UTILIZING A FIRST NETWORK AUTHENTICATION RESULT FOR A SECOND NETWORK - A method and system for completing the authentication process in a second communication network (such as Wi-Fi or WiMAX) utilizes a user credential of a first communication network, such as GSM, UMTS, CDMA, or LTE. Preferably, the user credential is a SIM card, a USIM card, a R-UIM card, or a functionally similar component. The system includes a client and an authentication platform that retrieves Service State information of the user credential in the first communication network and passes the information to the authentication platform of the second communication network. The client is wanted access to the second communication network after the authentication platform validates the client's service and subscription status with the first communication network. | 10-18-2012 |
20120149334 | METHOD OF AND SYSTEM FOR EXTENDING THE WISPr AUTHENTICATION PROCEDURE - A method and system for completing the authentication process of a user device in a second communication network (such as Wi-Fi or WiMAX) utilizes the user credential (such as a SIM card, a USIM card, or a RUIM card) of a first communication network (such as GSM, CDMA, EDGE, or LTE). A client, such as a software module, executes on the wireless device. An authentication platform retrieves the SIM card credential information in the first communication network and passes the information to the authentication platform of the second communication network, thereby granting the client access to the second communication after the authentication platform validates with the first communication network. | 06-14-2012 |
