1. A device comprising:
- a CPU;
an input/output device;
an external interface to enable the device to access a mobile network and a public wireless local area network (PWLAN);
a device identifier arranged to store device identifying data to access the mobile network; and
a memory unit storing machine-executable instructions which, when executed by the CPU, cause a first password to be generated based on the device identifying data to allow the device to access the PWLAN,wherein the device is adapted to receive a notification from an adapter, the notification indicating generation of a second password at the adapter, wherein the second password is identical to the first password.

15. A method comprising:
-
receiving a notification at a client device that a first password has been generated; and generating, at the client device, a second password based on client device identifying data and an encryption key, wherein the second password is identical to the first password and is utilized to allow the client device to access a public wireless local area network (PWLAN). - View Dependent Claims (16, 19)

17. A device comprising:
-
a CPU; an input/output device; an external interface to enable the device to access a mobile network and a public wireless local area network (PWLAN); a device identifier arranged to store device identifying data to access the mobile network; and a memory unit storing machine-executable instructions which, when executed by the CPU, cause a first password to be generated based on the device identifying data to allow the device to access the PWLAN, wherein the device is adapted to receive a message from an adapter, the message including; information indicating a part of the device identifying data used for the generation of a second password at the adapter, and wherein, upon receipt of the message, the first password is generated based on the part of the device identifying data used for the generation of the second password at the adapter, the second password being identical to the first password.
