Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to delivering shared WiFi credentials. According to various embodiments, at least one server computing device is configured to transmit shared WiFi credentials to a mobile device. The at least one server computing device receives a request, where the request includes data that identifies the mobile device. Moreover, the request indicates that the mobile device desirably receives credentials for a shared WiFi network. Responsive to receiving the request, the at least one server computing device determines that the mobile device is authorized to receive the credentials for the shared WiFi network based at least in part upon the data that identifies the mobile device. Moreover, the at least one server computing device transmits the credentials for the shared WiFi network to the mobile device responsive to determining that the mobile device is authorized to receive the credentials for the shared WiFi network.

Abstract: Embodiments apply a set of sequenced instructions to connect to a network through a captive portal. A computing device detects a network access point and obtains the instruction set corresponding to the network access point. The instruction set is derived by a cloud service from crowdsourced data describing interactions between mobile computing devices and the network access point. Applying the instruction set includes performing actions such as navigating web pages to accept terms and conditions, provide user or device information, and more.
