Embodiment Construction

[0096] figure 1 An embodiment of a system 1 according to the invention is shown. System 1 includes device 2 . Device 2 is one of a plurality of devices 2.i. Apart from the identity of each device, all devices in the plurality of devices 2.i may be similar or identical. Preferably, the device identification is a hardware identification (HW-id). In this example, Device 2 has a globally unique identifier. This uniqueness may be provided, for example, by a manufacturer / vendor identification combined with a serial number (eg similar to a known Media Access Control (MAC) address).

[0097] Device 2 is used by user 4 . User 4 may be a person. Alternatively, user 4 may be another device invoking use of device 2 . In this example, the user 4 of the device 2 is associated with a subscription with a network operator that provides services to a communication network or has a roaming agreement with the communication network. Here, the subscription has an account associated with the...

Abstract

The system includes a device of a plurality of devices and a network entity for connecting the device to a communications network. The device is arranged for attempting to access the network while providing an identification of the device to the network entity. The network entity is arranged for receiving the access attempt from the device, and determining the identification of the device. The network entity determines an identification of a subscription associated with the device from a first database of the system. The network determines whether the identified subscription has the device associated therewith in a second database. The network entity allows the device to connect to the network entity or prevents the device from connecting to the communications network depending on the above determinations.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods, network entities and devices for connecting devices to a communication network. More specifically, the invention relates to connecting a device without a subscription to a communication network. Background technique [0002] Today, a device that wants to use a mobile Internet connection and does not have access to a wireless access point must be equipped with a module (for example a 2G or 3G module) that provides mobile Internet access via a communication network. Such devices also require a subscription, eg via a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card arrangement. A subscriber has a subscription with an operator of the communication network. The operator has a Radio Access Network (RAN) providing wireless access and a service network providing services and billing etc. When the subscriber visits another country, radio access needs to be obtained via a visiting RAN. In order to gain this access, the operator...
