    摘要: A electronic device may generate graphic user interface (GUI) data, based on menu data, for display as a GUI on a display device. The GUI including a plurality of user-selectable menu items configured in a first order, will update the menu data in response to a selection, by the user, of one of the plurality of user-selectable menu items. The GUI data is then updated for display as an updated GUI on the display device wherein the menu data include plurality of menu item counters corresponding to the plurality of user-selectable menu items, respectively. The updated GUI data is updated for display as the updated GUI on the display device by arranging the plurality of the user-selectable menu items in a second order based on values of the menu item counter.

    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure are drawn to a client device for use with a first network device, a second network device, an external server, the first network device being configured to communicate with the external server and the second network device being configured to communicate with the external server. The client device includes a memory and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory. This causes the client device to onboard onto the first network device using a first password, generate a key, and store first association information in the external server. The first association information including client device identifying data to uniquely identify the client device. The client device will also onboard the second network device using the first password and store second association information in the external server, the second association information including the client device identifying data, and second network device identifying data to uniquely identify the second network device.

    摘要: As network resources of a network continue to be stretched due to a variety of users and numerous network devices connected to the network, there is a need to provide management of the network resources to optimize access to the network and to provide enhanced QoE for each user of the network without diminishing a particular user's experience. A throttling management application can provide for throttling one or more requests for an asset associated with one or more network devices. A request can be throttled so as to bump higher priority requests in a queue ahead of other network requests based on a throttling factor. The throttling factor can be associated with a throttling management profile that provides a priority to certain requests of certain network devices without delaying requests from other network devices.
