Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and client devices that automatically initiate a wireless network connection (e.g., a pairing) with an auxiliary computing device based on recurring detection of a wireless broadcast signal from the auxiliary computing device. Upon detecting a wireless broadcast signal for an auxiliary computing device satisfying a signal-strength threshold at multiple times or locations, for example, the disclosed client devices can automatically initiate a wireless network connection (e.g., a pairing) with the auxiliary computing device. By automatically initiating a wireless connection with such an auxiliary computing device, the disclosed client devices obviate inefficient user interactions conventional computing devices use to establish a pairing, facilitate pairings with auxiliary computing devices for unsavvy technology users, and avoid unsecure wireless connections that may compromise data on the disclosed provider client devices.
