Zusammenfassung:	A wireless network gateway redirects a wireless client device to a wireless network hotspot device. The wireless network gateway includes a hotspot location determining component, a client location determining component, a redirecting component and a communication component. The hotspot location determining component determines the location of the wireless network hotspot device. The client location determining component determines the location of the wireless client device. The redirecting component generates a redirection instruction based on the location of the wireless network hotspot device and the location of the wireless client device. The communication component transmits the redirection instruction to the wireless client device to instruct the wireless client device to redirect to the wireless network hotspot device.
