FIELD: information technology. ^ SUBSTANCE: method comprises the following steps: establishing a link between a user terminal (UT) and a first communication network (e.g. a cellular network); accessing a parameters server via the first network; loading access parameters for the second communication network (e.g. a Wireless Local Area Network); and using the loaded access parameters to set up a wireless link between the UT and the second communication network. The loaded access parameters may include information such as a security key, Service Set Identifier (SSID), traffic channel allocation, and optimisation parameters including transmission power, quality of service (QoS) settings and operational mode. Alternately, the database may cross-reference UT ID to parameters such as QoS, IP address, gateway information, subnet mask, Domain Name Server (DNS) information or geographical location. ^ EFFECT: improved access mechanism. ^ 23 cl, 5 dwg |
