Abstract: A device receives a request from a user to manage a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) profile stored in a smart card within the device, wherein the MNO profile includes one or more network access credentials for accessing a wireless network. The device performs a Completely Automated Public Turing Test to tell Computers and Humans Apart (CAPTCHA), wherein the CAPTCHA includes receiving input from the user, and authenticates the user as a human, and not a bot or other automated activity, based on the CAPTCHA and the input from the user. The device receives, from a network node external to the device responsive to the authenticating, a MNO profile management code, and manages the MNO profile based on the received MNO profile management code.

Abstract: A wireless communication device may include a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card configured to store a subscriber profile. The wireless communication device may further include logic configured to detect attachment to a wireless access network; detect a non-activated Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card; receive a Protocol Configuration Options (PCO) message from the wireless access network; retrieve subscription status information for the SIM card from the received PCO message; determine whether the SIM card has a valid subscription based on the retrieved subscription status information; and instruct the SIM card not to initiate an activation process with a SIM Over-the-air (OTA) system, in response to determining that the SIM card does not have a valid subscription.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide a network-based solution to efficiently transition private network subscribers from a macro network to a private network. A network device in the macro network stores a neighbor list identifying a private network that has overlapping coverage with a cell for the macro network. The network device detects that a user equipment (UE) device connected to the network device has a subscription to the private network and, in response to the detecting, sends, a release message to the UE device. The release message includes a redirection to the private network.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE), comprising at least one processor may be configured to transmit a first attach request to a first wireless network based on a first universal subscriber identity module (USIM). The UE may receive a rejection from the first wireless network and may switch from the first USIM to a second USIM based on the rejection. The UE may transmit a second attach request to the first wireless network based on the second USIM.

Abstract: A device may obtain, from a remote SIM provisioning (RSP) platform associated with a wireless network, a subscription identifier for a target device to be onboarded onto the wireless network. The device may generate a derived set of credentials for the target device based on an existing set of credentials in a SIM profile associated with the device. The device may generate a derived SIM profile that includes the subscription identifier obtained from the RSP platform and the derived set of credentials, and the device may cause the derived SIM profile to be provisioned onto an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) of the target device. Accordingly, the derived SIM profile may enable the target device to use the derived set of credentials to obtain authenticated access to the wireless network.

Abstract: A computer device may include a memory storing instructions and processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) refresh request. The processor may be further configured to identify one or more Quality of Service (QoS) classes for which, if an active communication session exists that is associated with at least one of the QoS classes, a SIM refresh should be rejected; access a database of active communication sessions associated with the UE device; determine that an active session, stored in the database of active communication sessions, is associated with at least one of the one or more QoS classes; and reject the SIM refresh request based on determining that the active session is associated with at least one of the one or more QoS classes.

Abstract: A system may determine, using first location data, that a client device is located in an interior of a premises in which multiple wireless network access points (APs) are deployed in a wireless network; identify, using second location data, locations of the client device within the interior; obtain, for the locations, a dataset including wireless network signal strength values corresponding to signal coverage areas associated with the wireless network APs; generate, using the dataset, a wireless network mapping corresponding to a layout of the interior; evaluate, against connectivity rules, the wireless network mapping with respect to overlapping signal coverage areas, the connectivity rules defining operations for connecting the client device to the wireless network as a function of the locations; and apply at least one of the operations to the client device at a current location relative to a preceding location and/or a succeeding location of the client device.

Abstract: A device may scan for a carrier that includes an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC), wherein the carrier is associated with a Mobile Network Operator (MNO). The device may hop on the carrier, authenticate with a network of the MNO without using an MNO profile stored in the eUICC, and gain limited access to the network in response to the authentication. The device may also register with the network while attached to the network. The registering may include downloading an operational MNO profile to the eUICC in the device and storing the MNO profile on the eUICC.
