Embodiment Construction

[0032] The communication facility of the invention comprises at least one primary (wireless) communication network RP belonging to a mobile phone operator, the Internet Protocol public network, at least one Internet access server 1 of an access provider, and at least one wireless local area network WLAN-1, which The wireless local area network is preferably connected to the Internet access server 1 . The dotted outline box 2 in the figure represents all access providers.

[0033]Mainnet RPs are installed (or configured) in major geographical areas, such as within countries. The network is, for example, a GSM, GPRS or UMTS network. This type of network does not form the subject of the present invention and is very familiar to the person skilled in the art, therefore no further details will be given here. Broadly speaking, it includes a variety of Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) 3, as they are known in GSM (or GPRS) networks (in UMTS networks, they are Node Bs), each associate...

Abstract

A device is dedicated to controlling access to wireless communications local area networks (WLAN-i) having a local coverage area included in a main coverage area of a main communications network (RP) equipped with mobile communications device positioning means (8). The device comprises management means (20) connected to the positioning means (8) and adapted i) to compare the positions of at least some of the mobile devices (9) to those of the local areas, in order to select the primary identifiers of the mobile devices substantially positioned in said local areas, and ii) to send a messaging server (10) of the main network (RP) instructions including the primary identifier of each mobile device (9) selected, in order for it to send them a message telling their users that they can connect to the local area network (WLAN-i) in whose local area they are placed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to communication between network terminals, and more particularly to controlling access to a wireless local area network. Background technique [0002] Mobile phone operators provide many services to users equipped with mobile communication devices, including providing access services to public networks (eg, the Internet) and private networks (eg, corporate intranets). However, these services tend to have long access times and frequent interruptions due to the high density of simultaneous use of mobile devices in areas known as "hot spots" such as train stations and airports. [0003] A prior art solution to this problem is to have some mobile devices connected to an installed wireless local area network (WLAN), especially in some hotspots, and connected to the Internet through an access provider, sometimes through a The Internet is connected to the intranet. However, in order to be able to connect to a WLAN, a user must...
