Publication number: 20230276400Abstract: A connection management resource tracks multiple instances of a mobile communication device wirelessly connecting to each of multiple wireless access points at different times to access a remote network. Based on the tracking, the connection management resource determines a set of the multiple wireless access points that reside in a first geographical region. The connection management resource then assigns a selected wireless access point such as a first wireless access point from the set as being a default wireless access point in which to provide the mobile communication device wireless connectivity to the remote network. In one situation, the connection management resource assigns the first wireless access point as the default wireless access point in response to detecting that the mobile communication device most frequently, amongst the multiple instances, establishes wireless connectivity with the first wireless access point to access the remote network.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Erik A. Anderson, Loay O. Kreishan

Publication number: 20230231838Abstract: According to one configuration, a wireless access service provider selects and assigns a particular authentication option amongst multiple different authentication options to an entity such as a wireless access point or a sub-network supported by the wireless access point. When a communication device attempts to use the corresponding wireless access point provided by the wireless access service provider, a wireless access gateway receives information from the wireless access point indicating the particular authentication option assigned to authenticate the communication device. The wireless access gateway communicates the notification of the particular authentication option to an authentication manager, which provides the wireless access gateway with network address information indicating a captive portal in which to authenticate the communication device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2023Publication date: July 20, 2023Inventors: Shane B. Newberg, Christopher J. Teague, Venkata R. Divvi, Cheryl A. Warne, Loay O. Kreishan

Publication number: 20220345876Abstract: According to one configuration, a system comprising: a first SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) device; a second SIM device; and user equipment in which the first SIM device and the second SIM device are installed. The user equipment is operable to: access first subscriber identity information stored in the first SIM device, the first subscriber identity information providing the user equipment access to a first wireless network in a network environment; access second subscriber identity information stored in the second SIM device, the second subscriber identity information providing the user equipment access to a second wireless network in the network environment; and via analysis of configuration settings in the second subscriber identity information, detect that the second network is assigned to support non-voice wireless communications between the user equipment and a remote network.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventor: Loay O. Kreishan

Publication number: 20220322083Abstract: During registration, a mobile communication device derives a first instance of biometric information from a user operating the mobile communication device. The communication device retrieves an encryption key assigned to the mobile communication device. Via application of the encryption key to the first instance of biometric information, the communication device produces first encrypted biometric information and forwards it to an authentication resource. The authentication resource stores the first encrypted biometric information for later authentication of the communication device. During subsequent authentication, the mobile communication device derives a second instance of biometric information from the user operating the mobile communication device. The communication device encrypts the second instance of biometric information with the encryption key and forwards it to the authentication resource.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2022Publication date: October 6, 2022Inventors: Loay O. Kreishan, Ahmed Bencheikh
