The communication tunnel includes a first link initiated using a webview embedded in an application on the mobile terminal and a second link initiated using a library attached to the webview. The first link connects the mobile terminal with the remote server. The second link connects the network-connectable device with the remote server through the mobile terminal. A data packet indicating that the network-connectable device is ready to be provisioned is received through the communication tunnel. A request for providing provisioning data is sent through the communication tunnel based on the data packet. Provisioning data are transmitted through the communication tunnel in response to sending the request. The network-connectable device is provisioned using the provisioning data.
