Migrating configuration information based on user identity information

A system for migrating home-networking configuration from one router to another router, the system comprising at least one processor connected to a storage device, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

• associate home-networking configuration information received and stored at a trusted system from a first router on a home network with a user identity that corresponds to a user of the home network;
• establish a communications session between a user device connected to the home network and the trusted system through a second router that is on the home network and that is located between the user device and the trusted system;
• determine that the home-networking configuration information that was received from the first router and that is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network is not maintained on the second router;
• and
• based on a determination that the communications session is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network and a determination that the home-networking configuration information that was received from the first router and that is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network is not maintained on the second router, access the home-networking configuration information stored on the trusted system and send the accessed home-networking configuration information to the second router.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a set of programmable instructions configured to migrate home-networking configuration information from one router to another router, the set of programmable instructions comprising one or more code segments that are executable by at least one processor to:

• associate home-networking configuration information received and stored at a trusted system from a first router on a home network with a user identity that corresponds to a user of the home network;
• establish a communications session between a user device connected to the home network and the trusted system through a second router that is on the home network and that is located between the user device and the trusted system;
• determine that the home-networking configuration information that was received from the first router and that is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network is not maintained on the second router;
• and
• based on a determination that the communications session is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network and a determination that the home-networking configuration information that was received from the first router and that is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network is not maintained on the second router, access the home-networking configuration information stored on the trusted system and send the accessed home-networking configuration information to the second router.

A method for migrating home-networking configuration information from a first router to a second router on a home network, the method comprising:

• associating home-networking configuration information received and stored at a trusted system from the first router with a user identity that corresponds to a user of the home network;
• establishing a communications session between a user device connected to the home network and the trusted system through the second router that is on the home network and that is located between the user device and the trusted system;
• determining whether to send the home-networking configuration information that was received from the first router and that is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network to the second router;
• and
• based on a determination to send the home-networking configuration information that was received from the first router and that is associated with the user identity that corresponds to the user of the home network to the second router, accessing the home-networking configuration information stored on the trusted system and sending the accessed home-networking configuration information to the second router.
