    Abstract: An apparatus, systems, methods, and the like, for autonomous scaling of Internet services, such as scaling Internet access speeds, provided by a communications network to one or more connected networks is provided. The service-providing network may include one or more virtual interface devices through which the connected network or device may access the Internet. The connected networks may utilize these virtual devices to communicate with the broader Internet to exchange data. For example, the connected networks may be associated with a common access point to the service providing network, such as an on-net building or other common location that utilizes the same device or devices to access the network to receive services from the network. In some implementations, the virtual network access devices may be instantiated on one or more network computing devices, such as an application server or other configurable computing and networking device.

    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing configuration data and settings on customer premises equipment (“CPE”), and, more particularly, for implementing storage, retrieval, and transfer of configuration data and settings associated with a user and/or a customer premises on CPE. In operation, CPE might set and store one or more configuration settings associated with a user and/or a customer premises. Next, a first CPE might receive a request to set the one or more configuration settings associated with the user or the customer premises on the first CPE or on a second CPE. Based on the request received, the CPE might retrieve from storage and set the one or more configuration settings associated with the user or the customer premises on the first CPE or on the second CPE.

    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing error detection in a network, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing error and/or fault detection in a network and/or media stream and providing options to address the error and/or fault in the network and/or media stream. In various embodiments, a computer might detect an error in a first network and send a notification indicating that the error has occurred. The notification might contain one or more options to address the error in the first network. The computer, a user device, a service provider device, or a content provider device might receive and display the notification containing the one or more options. The computer, the user device, the service provider device, or the content provider device might then select at least one of the one or more options to address the error in the first network.

    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing media content streaming or playback, and, in particular, automatic audio optimization. In some embodiments, a computing system might receive user input indicating a request for presentation of media content, initiate database lookup in a database for audio parameter settings associated with the requested media content, and determine whether the database contains audio parameter settings specifically associated with the requested media content. If so, the computing system retrieves the audio parameter settings and automatically reconfigures an audio playback device(s) with the retrieved audio parameter settings. If not, the computing system determines whether the database contains audio parameter settings associated with a content category to which the requested media content belongs. If so, such audio parameter settings are retrieved and the audio playback device(s) are reconfigured with the audio parameter settings. If not, the audio playback device(s) are reconfigured with default audio parameter settings.

    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing auto-switching and/or auto-playing video content. In various embodiments, based on a determination that the display device is in the on-state, a computing system might identify a first content source of a first video content that is displayed on a display screen of the display device. Based on a determination that a second video content will soon begin its broadcast from a second content source, based on a determination that the display device is in the on-state, and based on a determination that the second content source is different from the first content source, the computing system might automatically switch the display device from display of the first video content from the first content source to display of the second video content from the second content source, without user interaction from any user to initiate switching.

    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing media content streaming/downloading and playback, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing video quality optimization based on display capabilities. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive user input from a user indicating a user request for media content. The computing system might autonomously determine characteristics or attributes of a playback device (i.e., a display device and/or audio playback device, etc.). The computing system might send, to a media content source over a network, a request for the media content, the request comprising information regarding presentation characteristics that are based at least in part on the determined characteristics of the playback device. The computing system might receive a version of the media content having the one or more presentation characteristics, and might relay the received version of the media content to the playback device for presentation to the user.

    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe a testing framework for adaptive virtual services. In an example, a function vendor provides a network function having stated specifications to a service provider. A derived signature is generated for the network function (e.g., based on associated metadata, an image associated with the network function, and/or a network signature for the network function), which is used to classify the network function. The testing framework is used to test the network function according to its classification, thereby determining a set of capabilities. In examples, a network function having the same or similar signature as a previously tested network function may be categorized according to the previously tested network function. The network function is categorized according to its determined capabilities and added to an inventory of network functions for the service provider. Network functions in the inventory can then be selected to form a computer network.
