System and method for directing a tethered device to an in-vehicle stored landing page based on an available credit or data balance

An access system comprising:

• a memory configured to store a local domain name system server virtual machine (VM), a local landing page server VM, and a local landing page, wherein the local domain name system server VM is programmed with an Internet protocol (IP) address and a domain name of the local landing page server VM;
• and
• a control module configured to
• transmit a hypertext transfer protocol request from an in-vehicle device to a network application server via a packet data network (PDN) gateway or a gateway general packet radio server (GPRS) support node (GGSN),
• based on a network event, receive a redirect response signal from the PDN gateway or the GGSN to redirect the in-vehicle device from accessing the network application server to receiving the local landing page or a network landing page, wherein the redirect response signal includes a uniform resource identifier of the local landing page or the network landing page,
• based on the uniform resource identifier, provide a first query request signal to the local domain name system server VM for the IP address and the domain name of a network landing page server or the local landing page server VM,
• receive a first query response signal from the local domain name system server VM including the IP address and the domain name,
• contact the local landing page server VM based on the first query response signal, and
• subsequent to contacting the local landing page server VM, receive the local landing page from the local landing page server VM.
