Exemplary systems and methods for providing a network credential in order to access a communication network are provided. In exemplary embodiments, a digital device attempting to access the communication network receives an authentication request from the network device. An authentication record based on the authentication request is retrieved from a credential server. The network credential is then provided within the authentication record and transmitted as an authentication response to the network device. Upon authentication by the network device, the digital device is provided access to the communication network.
