Abstract

See full text

A home network router and method of operation are provided for seamlessly sharing access to a network service by multiple devices in a home network by configuring the home network router to receive and store authenticated user credentials for the network service at the home network router after associating the user credentials with the network service so that, upon reception of a second user request from a second client device to access the network service, the user credentials are retrieved from the home network router for direct delivery to and authentication by the network service without requiring re-entry of the one or more user credentials from the second client device.
