Abstract: Using cell phones or other wireless devices to notify users of those devices of impending arrival at a selected customer location. The current location of the wireless device is determined and compared with the known location of the destination. When the wireless device is within a predetermined distance or at a predetermined estimated arrival time from the selected destination, an alert is sent to the wireless device and, if authorized, an alert also is sent to the destination. In response to the impending arrival, the destination may provide information for the user concerning offerings at that destination.

Abstract: A portable wireless configuration device, such as a key fob, is provided which executes an application program to configure a wireless client device to connect to a secured wireless network via an access point. The wireless client device may be unconnected to and remote from the access point. A request signal is transmitted from the wireless configuration device to the access point in response to detecting a user input on the wireless configuration device. The request signal includes a request for network connectivity settings associated with the secured wireless network. The wireless configuration device receives and then stores the network connectivity settings from the access point. The wireless configuration device then transmits the settings to the wireless client device to be configured.
