Abstract
An approach and system for readying the device for use over a communication network is described. The system processes label information associated with a device unregistered for use by a user over a communication network of a service provider to determine a pairing identifier assigned by the service provider to a transmitter associated with the device. The system also determines a pairing connection is established between the device and the transmitter based on the pairing identifier. The system also determines the transmission of location information associated with the device, the transmitter, or a combination thereof over the pairing connection, over a high speed communication channel established with the service provider, or a combination thereof. The system further initiates a registration procedure of the device with the communication network based on the location information, registration information associated with the device, the transmitter, the user, or a combination thereof, or a combination thereof.
