1. A wireless device for wireless local area networks provisioned by a provisioning device, comprising:
a processor;
a memory coupled to the processor and storing default provisioning network data, including a provisional device address;
a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor;
at least one of a sensing device and an output device;
the processor configured to use the wireless transceiver and memory to:
join a default provisioning network;
receive from the provisioning device a broadcast message request for the provisional device address;
transmit to the provisioning device the provisional device address;
receive from the provisioning device a unicast message including a new device address for the wireless device in a provisioned site network;
store the new device address in the memory;
receive from the provisioning device a broadcast message including provisioned site network data;
store the provisioned site network data in the memory; and
switch from the default provisioning network to the provisioned site network; and
wherein at least one of the provisioning device and a remote control device is capable of operability with the at least one of a sensing device an output device; and
wherein the output device includes a light source for illumination and the at least one of the provisioning device and the remote control device is capable of controlling the light source.
