An authorization system in a home wireless network comprises a communication interface and a processing system, wherein a wireless communication device associated with the home wireless network transfers a network service request to a service node to acquire a static packet address for the wireless communication device. The communication interface is configured to receive an authorization request for the wireless communication device, transfer a query for delivery to a user profile system, receive a packet address of a home agent associated with the wireless communication device, transfer an authorization response, and receive an authentication request transferred from the home agent. The processing system is configured to process the authentication request to determine the static packet address for the wireless communication device. The communication interface is configured to transfer an authentication response for delivery to the home agent, wherein the authentication response includes the static packet address for the wireless communication device.
