Abstract: An automated registration process for registering a new user and new high speed access device with an internet service provider is accomplished without requiring user input aside from choices of service provider, service level agreement, and the provision of basic user information. A mediation server communicates with a provisioning server to obtain necessary access device information without requiring a user to access or know such information.

Abstract: A puzzle including multiple puzzle pieces, each including a two-dimensional outline forming a surface covering area, that are arrangeable to cover a puzzle base. One set of puzzle pieces includes fourteen total pieces with eleven of the pieces having distinct outlines corresponding to the eleven different ways the six faces of a unit cube can be unfolded while remaining connected together and then flattened. The two-dimensional outlines of the other three pieces can be arranged to form the outlines of the eleven puzzle pieces and can be arranged to form a unit cube. In some embodiments, the puzzle bases have exterior peripheries that are three-dimensional and which can be partially or fully covered by the puzzle pieces as a puzzle solution. In other embodiments, the puzzle bases indicate a two-dimensional pattern which the puzzle pieces can be arranged to cover as a puzzle solution.
