Abstract

See full text

A system for automating customer premises equipment (CPE) registration has CPE located at a customer premises. The CPE has a product identifier, such as a serial number or barcode, located on a housing of the CPE for identifying the CPE, and a data storage element is located in a network for storing customer data, including customer premises location information. A technician uses a mobile communication device to automatically detect the product identifier, and the mobile communication device has a location sensor configured to determine the location of the device. The mobile communication device is configured to transmit a message indicative of the product identifier and the location of the device to the data storage element via a cellular network, and the data storage element is configured to automatically associate the product identifier with a customer based on the customer data and the location of the device.
