Abstract
A method, Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) client, and WLAN Service Node (WSN) that allows an Extensible Authentication Protocol--Subscriber Information module (EAP-SIM) module of the WLAN client, which module may be wither downloaded from the Internet or pre-installed in the WLAN client, to extract user credentials from a Subscriber Information Module (SIM) card, and to package the credentials into the EAP-SIM format and further into the TCP/IP format, before sending them to the WSN via a serving Access Point (AP). The WSN receives the credentials and unpacks them from the TCP/IP format and further from the EAP-SIM format, and authenticates/authorizes the WLAN client. WLAN access is authorized for the WLAN client upon successful authorization.
