  • Selective Providing of a Personalized Selective Service Set Identifier
    Publication number: 20230328633
    Abstract: An access point that selectively provides an identifier of a WLAN is described. This access point may include an interface circuit that communicates with an electronic device and a second electronic device. During operation, the access point may receive, associated with the electronic device, information specifying the second electronic device and optionally the identifier of the WLAN. When the access point detects a presence of the second electronic device in proximity to the access point, the access point may selectively provide the identifier of the WLAN. Alternatively, when the access point does not detect the presence of the second electronic device in proximity to the access point within a time interval, the access point may selectively disable the identifier of the WLAN. Note that the identifier of the WLAN may include an SSID of the WLAN. For example, the SSID may include a personalized SSID of the second electronic device.
