Internet subscription management in a cellular-based network

A system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory including a plurality of computer-executable components that are executable by the one or more processors to perform a plurality of actions, the plurality of actions comprising:
• storing one or more plan parameter thresholds associated with an in-home Internet service subscription plan of a subscriber during a current billing period, the in-home Internet service subscription plan is for using Internet service from a wireless carrier network via a cellular modem device;
• monitoring an Internet service usage during the current billing period by receiving at least one usage parameter measurement for the one or more plan parameter thresholds;
• comparing each of the at least one usage parameter measurement with a corresponding plan parameter threshold of the in-home Internet service subscription plan;
• providing one or more preconfigured subscription plan change options to the cellular modem device for presentation via a user interface of the cellular modem device or a user device that is communicatively connected to the cellular modem device based at least on a comparison between each of the at least one usage parameter measurement and the corresponding plan parameter threshold;
• wherein the providing includes presenting one or more subscription plan change options for downgrading to a new in-home Internet service subscription plan with a lower upload speed limit when a comparison indicates that an upload bandwidth utilization measurement during a predetermined time period is lower than a lower upload bandwidth utilization measurement threshold;
• receiving a selection of a preconfigured subscription plan change option through the user interface of the cellular modem device;
• and
• sending, from the cellular modem device, a subscription plan change request that corresponds to a selected subscription plan change option to the wireless carrier network to adjust the in-home Internet service subscription plan of the subscriber.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media of a cellular modem device storing computer-executable instructions that upon execution cause the cellular modem device to perform acts comprising:

• storing one or more plan parameter thresholds associated with an in-home Internet service subscription plan of a subscriber during a current billing period, the in-home Internet service subscription plan is for using Internet service from a wireless carrier network via the cellular modem device;
• monitoring an Internet service usage during the current billing period that includes at least one usage parameter measurement for the one or more plan parameter thresholds;
• comparing a usage parameter measurement with a corresponding plan parameter threshold of the in-home Internet service subscription plan;
• presenting, via a user interface of a user device that is communicatively connected to the cellular modem device, one or more preconfigured subscription plan change options based at least on a comparison between the usage parameter measurement and the corresponding plan parameter threshold;
• wherein the presenting includes presenting one or more subscription plan change options for downgrading to a new in-home Internet service subscription plan with a lower upload speed limit when a comparison indicates that an upload bandwidth utilization measurement during a predetermined time period is lower than a lower upload bandwidth utilization measurement threshold;
• receiving a selection of a preconfigured subscription plan change option through the user interface of the cellular modem device;
• sending, from the cellular modem device, a subscription plan change request that corresponds to a selected subscription plan change option to the wireless carrier network to adjust the in-home Internet service subscription plan of the subscriber;
• receiving a notification for an adjustment of the in-home Internet service subscription plan of the subscriber by the wireless carrier network at the cellular modem device;
• and
• presenting, via the user device, the notification for the adjustment of the in-home Internet service subscription plan of the subscriber.
