Patent number: 11627392Abstract: A local network call handling device is configured to establish multiple concurrent call sessions between local network end devices and an external network. When a prioritized end device attempts to establish a call session, the call handling device may initially determine if a first call session identifier is available. If so, the call session can be established using that first identifier. If the first identifier is in use for a call session of another end device, the call handling device may either use a different call session identifier for the prioritized end device session or may drop a pre-existing call session to free an identifier for use in connection with the prioritized end device.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2022Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Michael Connelly, Jeffrey Lewis, Bhagabati Maharana, Louis Rubin, Richard Vetter

Patent number: 8842815Abstract: A profile-based system is employed to manage user identities and preferences, devices, content and/or other aspects of service delivery. The user profiles may be maintained in one or more servers or other elements located in an external network access via a customer premises equipment (CPE) gateway of a local network. The profiles can be used to map users to identities, devices, services, and other features that affect the manner in which a particular user communicates with (or through) the external network.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2009Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Michael Connelly, Sharma Kanchinadham, Bhagabati Maharana, Louis Rubin, Michael J. Cook, James Tobin, Jeffrey Lewis, Bavani Subramaniam
