A method and system for providing to a non-connected wireless device access to a wide area network through a wireless device having a connection facility (e.g., a wireless connection provider or wireless portal). First, the non-connected wireless device employs a short-range wireless communication link to negotiate with at least one wireless connection provider for connection services. Second, once the non-connected wireless device has selected a particular connection provider, the connection provider provides access to the wide area network resource through the connection facility and measures the usage. Third, the wireless connection provider bills the non-connected wireless device for the provided connection services. Fourth, the non-connected wireless device provides payment information to the wireless connection provider for enabling payment.
