Instant secure wireless network setup

A system for configuring a wireless mesh device, the system comprising:

• an application program that includes instructions executable by a processor of a user device, wherein the user device sends a communication that includes a first set of information via a first type of communication channel;
• a wireless mesh device that receives the communication from the user device via the first type of communication channel, the wireless mesh device performing functions of:
• generating an initial pairwise key from the first set of information and from a second set of information at the wireless mesh device,
• sending a message to the user device that includes the second set of information so that the user device can generate a corresponding pairwise key after extracting the second set of information from the message, validate the initial pairwise key, and send a login message to the wireless mesh device,
• verifying the login message received from the user device, the login message generated after validation of the corresponding pairwise key with respect to the initial pairwise key, and
• sending an access granted message to the user device based on verifying the login message;
• and
• a registration computer that receives registration information sent from the user device, wherein the registration computer receives the registration information via a second type of communication interface, and the wireless mesh device is deemed a registered wireless mesh device and is configured following the sending of the access granted message and a subsequent dual factor communication with the registration computer.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having embodied thereon one or more sets of instructions executable by a processor for implementing a method for configuring wireless mesh devices, the method comprising:

• receiving a communication from a user device via a first type of communication channel at a wireless mesh device, wherein the communication includes a first set of information;
• generating an initial pairwise key from the first set of information and from a second set of information at the wireless mesh device;
• sending a message to the user device that includes the second set of information from the wireless mesh device so that the user device can generate a corresponding pairwise key after extracting the second set of information from the message, validate the initial pairwise key, and send a login message to the wireless mesh device;
• verifying the login message received from the user device, the login message generated after validation of the corresponding pairwise key with respect to the initial pairwise key;
• and
• sending an access granted message to the user device based on verifying the login message, wherein the wireless mesh device is deemed a registered wireless mesh device and is configured following the sending of the access granted message and a subsequent dual factor communication with a registration computer.
