Abstract
A technology is described for connecting a device to a network. An example method may include identifying a preinstalled network configuration for a default wireless network from device memory. The preinstalled network configuration may be used by the device to connect to the default wireless network and obtain a local network configuration for a local wireless network. Thereafter, the device may disconnect from the default wireless network and connect to the local wireless network using the local network configuration.
