Abstract

A monitoring computer (115) monitors a communication resource within a wireless communication system for transmissions by a communication unit. Upon detecting the transmission, which contains a unit identifier, the monitoring computer compares the unit identifier with stored system access information for the communication unit. When the unit identifier is not compatible with the stored system access information, the monitoring computer reprograms at least a portion of the system access information of the communication unit. In this manner, discrepancies in communication unit programming may be corrected.
