Abstract
A Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) device can include identification information disposed on an exterior surface of the FWA device. The FWA device can be configured to receive over a local communication network from a mobile device, provisioning information associated with the FWA device based on the identification information and install the provisioning information in a memory unit. The FWA device can establish cellular connectivity with a network base station based on the provisioning information. The provisioning information can be obtained by the mobile device scanning the identification information, providing the identification information to a server, and receiving the provisioning information from the server based on the identification information.
