ABSTRACT:
A control method, apparatus, and system capable of securely distributing a shared secret network encryption key from a host to a wireless peripheral device. The sharing of the secret network encryption key is accomplished without the intervention of a man-machine interface at the peripheral. Embodiments enable a wireless device to receive and store multiple encryption keys, to select the appropriate encryption key depending on the network in range of the device, and thus to freely associate with multiple networks.
