A provisioning server has a port to receive a request for a network address including an indication that a remote device is wideband capable. The provisioning server also has a processor to respond to the request with a network address and include an address for a configuration file and to provide a configuration file that allows wideband service. A cable modem has a port to request a network address and indicate wideband capability. The cable modem also has a processor to receive a response to that request that includes a network address and an address for a configuration file. The processor also receives a configuration file and allows the cable modem to be configured for wideband service.
