A client device uses a hostname-based feature mapping table. A randomized MAC address and a hostname of the client device is obtained from the memory of the client device. A user interface receives a selection. to indicate the hostname is to be changed to a new hostname. The client device is associated with a network access device when the new hostname is determined to be unique. A list of features and associated rules are displayed in the user interface for associating with the new hostname. Features and associated rules are selected from the list to link to the new hostname. A feature mapping table is presented in the user interface to show the features and associated rules linked to the new hostname.

Hostname based management of features of a network device

As network resources of a network continue to be stretched due to a variety of users and numerous network devices connected to the network, there is a need to provide management of the network resources to optimize access to the network and to provide enhanced QoE for each user of the network without diminishing a particular user's experience. A throttling management application can provide for throttling one or more requests for an asset associated with one or more network devices. A request can be throttled so as to bump higher priority requests in a queue ahead of other network requests based on a throttling factor. The throttling factor can be associated with a throttling management profile that provides a priority to certain requests of certain network devices without delaying requests from other network devices.

Throttling network throughput based on a throttling factor

A system and method are provided for a network device for use with a client device having a hostname and a MAC address. The network device contains a memory that has a second hostname and a second MAC address stored within the memory. The second MAC address corresponds to the second hostname. The memory also contains a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory to cause the network device to: receive, from the client device, the hostname and the MAC address; determine whether the MAC address is randomized; provide an instruction to the client device to inform a user of the client device that the client device hostname is registered when the hostname matches the second hostname and the MAC address is randomized.

Client device based solution for handling MAC randomization

Aspects of the present disclosure are drawn to a client device for use with a first network device, a second network device, an external server, the first network device being configured to communicate with the external server and the second network device being configured to communicate with the external server. The client device includes a memory and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory. This causes the client device to onboard onto the first network device using a first password, generate a key, and store first association information in the external server. The first association information including client device identifying data to uniquely identify the client device. The client device will also onboard the second network device using the first password and store second association information in the external server, the second association information including the client device identifying data, and second network device identifying data to uniquely identify the second network device.

Client device based management of multiple devices with single user account

A system and method are provided for a client device for use with a first Wi-Fi network device, a second Wi-Fi network device, and an external server. The first Wi-Fi network device is configured with a first subnet configuration and the external server has a list of reserved subnet configurations stored therein. The client device comprises a memory and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on said memory to cause said client device to: access the list of reserved subnet configurations from the external server; choose a subnet configuration based on the list of reserved subnet configurations; and instruct the second Wi-Fi network device to establish a second network having the chosen subnet configuration.

Client device based home subnet management

A client device is provided for use with an APD and an extender. The client device includes a memory, a GUI, and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory to cause the client device to: instruct the GUI to display an onboarding menu including a user selectable onboard extender icon; instruct the extender device to onboard onto the main APD, in response to a user selection of the user selectable onboard extender icon; instruct the GUI to enable the user to perform an operation while the extender device performs the onboarding onto the main APD; instruct the GUI to display a successful onboarding indication if the extender device onboards onto the main APD within a predetermined period of time, or to display a failure onboarding indication if the extender device does not onboard onto the main APD within the predetermined period of time.

User friendly targeted methodology for satellite installation using mobile app

An apparatus, method, and computer-readable recording medium perform client configuration of a managed device in a wireless network. A client device retrieves capabilities data from an Internet-based cloud server, builds a user interface (UI) based upon the user defined capabilities data and managed service defined capabilities data, sends a data request to the managed device, receives managed device state data from the managed device, sends command to update the managed device, and when the update of the managed device is complete, instructs managed device to send current user defined capabilities data and managed service defined capabilities data to the Internet-based cloud server.

Using a mobile application with a cloud server to manage a home network

A Wi-Fi access point device (APD) includes a controller, a radio, and a memory. The memory contains instructions for establishing a programmed secure Wi-Fi onboarding SSID with the client device with connection to the external network. The controller is configured to instruct the radio to broadcast the open Wi-Fi onboarding SSID for a predetermined period of time. The controller is also configured to: instruct the radio to broadcast an established programmed secure Wi-Fi onboarding SSID; onboard the Wi-Fi APD to the external network, based on information communicated between the Wi-Fi client device and the Wi-Fi APD over the established programmed secure Wi-Fi onboarding SSID; and instruct the radio to stop the broadcast of the open Wi-Fi onboarding SSID at the earlier of a termination of the predetermined time period and the onboarding of the Wi-Fi APD to the external network.
