1. A system comprising:
- a network interface component configured to;
receive a request to authenticate including a credential;
send a first plurality of packets with a first predetermined timing and length associated with the credential; and
receive information including a device identifier associated with a second plurality of packets with a second predetermined timing and length from;
one or more processors configured to;
generate the first plurality of packets; and
pair the received credential to the received device identifier when the first plurality of packets and the first predetermined timing and length match the second plurality of packets and the second predetermined timing and length; and
a memory storing the paired device identifier and credential.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed which may allow a user having a mobile device to automatically authenticate to a server using a device identifier associated with the mobile device. An access point may be configured to send the device identifier as well as additional identifying information to the server so that the device identifier can be accurately matched to the mobile device. Then, when the mobile device submits a credential during authentication, the device identifier and the credential may be matched such that the next time the server receives the device identifier from the access point, the mobile device may be automatically authenticated.

6. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a server, a request to authenticate to the server, the request to authenticate including a credential; sending, by the server, in response to the request to authenticate, a first plurality of packets with a first predetermined timing and length associated with the credential; receiving, by the server, information including a device identifier of a device associated with a second plurality of packets with a second predetermined timing and length; and pairing, by the server, the received credential to the device identifier when the first plurality of packets and the first predetermined timing and length match the second plurality of packets and the second predetermined timing and length. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a server, a request to authenticate to the server, the request to authenticate including a credential; sending, by the server, in response to the request to authenticate, executable instructions associated with a first plurality of packets with a first predetermined timing and length; receiving, by the server, a device identifier and a second plurality of packets with a second predetermined timing and length from a device executing the executable instructions; and pairing, by the server, the received credential to the device identifier when the first plurality of packets and the first predetermined timing and length match the second plurality of packets and the second predetermined timing and length. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
