METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SETTING UP LINKS BETWEEN COMMUNICATION TERMINALS AND DATA AND COMMUNICATION NETWORKS COMPRISING WIRELESS TRANSMISSION PATHS SUCH AS WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORKS (WLAN) AND/OR MOBILE RADIO NETWORKS, AND CORRESPONDING COMPUTER PROGRAM

摘要

The invention relates to a method and device for setting up links between communication terminals and data and communication networks such as Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) and/or mobile radio networks comprising wireless transmission paths, in addition to a corresponding computer program and corresponding computer-readable storage medium which can, in particular, be used in order to create secure access to WLAN networks. According to the invention, a device is used to set up links between communication terminals and data and/or communication networks such as Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) and/or mobile radio networks comprising wireless transmission paths. Said device comprises a unit for setting up links with an integrated authentication and/or identification module. The authentication module is configured in such a way that authentication and/or identification for access to the data and/or communication network is carried out by the authentication and/or identification module independently from the operating system of the communication terminal.
