Mobile devices are provisioned that do not have a direct communications path to a data network. A proximate device is discovered that is available for connecting to the mobile device via a peer-to-peer connection. The proximate device is determined to be trusted by the mobile device and usable to communicate to the data network A peer-to-peer connection is established with the proximate device. Identification data is provided to the proximate device, and an activation code is received. The mobile device communicates to the mobile network operator indicated by the activation code. Subscription credentials are received for accessing a mobile network operated by the mobile network operator.

ESIM profile discovery

Systems and methods herein recognize that form factors executing personal computer (PC) operating systems experience limited connectivity when traveling between WiFi connections and/or wired connections. Not only does this limit research capabilities of the PC form factor while between WiFi and/or wired connections, but the limitations place data integrity at risk. Systems and methods herein monitor for conditions that cause data integrity risks and seamlessly implement solutions that resolve, reduce, and/or manage identified data integrity risk conditions at least by simplifying a user's ability to identify and connect to networks, which offer data integrity risk solutions.

Intelligent indicators of dynamic connectivity alternatives

Mobile devices are provisioned that do not have a direct communications path to a data network. A proximate device is discovered that is available for connecting to the mobile device via a peer-to-peer connection. The second device is determined to be trusted by the mobile device and usable to communicate to the data network A peer-to-peer connection is established with the proximate device. Identification data is provided to the proximate device, and an activation code is received. The mobile device, via the peer-to-peer connection, communicates to the mobile network operator indicated by the activation code. Subscription credentials are received for accessing a mobile network operated by the mobile network operator.
