ABSTRACT:
A wireless communication device and method for making a secure transfer of a communication connection from a direct connection with a cellular network to a connection via a wireless local area network is provided. The device and method are adapted for detecting the presence of the wireless communication device within the communication coverage area of the wireless local area network and authenticating the wireless communication device with the wireless local area network. After authenticating the wireless communication device with the wireless local area network, a handoff is requested from the cellular network to the wireless local area network, where a secure connection between the mobile station and the cellular network via the wireless local area network is established, and then the direct connection with the cellular network is broken.
