20090024745 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING NETWORK CONNECTION - A portable router for enabling a data communication terminal to be location and device transparent includes: a first module for storing a digital communication address of a user; a second module for detecting a data communication network location to which the terminal is connected; a third module for detecting communication devices that are connected to the terminal; a fourth module for establishing data communication between the terminal and the network such that the communication address of the location from the second module is automatically converted to the communication address of the user from the first module; and a fifth module for automatically selecting a communication device which was detected by the third module for use by the fourth module. | 01-22-2009 |
20100020685 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DYNAMIC BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT ON A PER SUBSCRIBER BASIS IN A COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - A subscriber bandwidth management process and device that allows users/subscribers in a communications network to dynamically alter bandwidth limits independently in both the uplink and downlink data transmission paths. This is accomplished by providing for a single queue in the uplink transmission path and a single queue in the downlink transmission path. Thus, the user/subscriber can efficiently manage their network access according to the specific activity on the network. The network manager benefits from being able structure bandwidth allocation on a per subscriber basis so that overall data transmission is made more efficient. In addition, the bandwidth manager provides active management of the delivery of data (also known as and referred to herein as traffic shaping) to increase throughput from a gateway device onto the network. | 01-28-2010 |
20100115113 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING DYNAMIC NETWORK AUTHORIZATION, AUTHENTICATION AND ACCOUNTING - Systems and methods for selectably controlling and customizing source access to a network, where the source is associated with a source computer, and wherein the source computer has transparent access to the network via a gateway device and no configuration software need be installed on the source computer to access the network. A user may be prevented access from a particular destination or site based upon the user's authorization while being permitted to access to other sites that the method and system deems accessible. The method and system can identify a source without that source's knowledge, and can access customizable access rights corresponding to that source in a source profile database. The source profile database can be a remote authentication dial-in user service (RADIUS) or a lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) database. The method and system use source profiles within the source profile database to dynamically authorize source access to networks and destinations via networks. | 05-06-2010 |

20120030737 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTHORIZING A PORTABLE COMMUNICATION DEVICE - Systems and methods of authorizing a portable communication device to access a network resource. In an embodiment, a request to access a network resource is received from a portable communication device via a network. A processor is used to dynamically and selectively determine whether the portable communication device is authorized to access the requested network resource. The determination may be based on a unique identifying attribute associated with the portable communication device without the unique identifying attribute being predefined in a user profile database and without querying the portable communication device or its user for information. If the portable communication device is authorized, it may be allowed to access the network resource. Otherwise, it may be redirected to an authentication system where it may be enabled to submit authentication-related information so that it may be authorized to access the requested network resource. | 02-02-2012 |
