Abstract
A authenticating system and process for authenticating user devices to a access a media service where access to certain portions of the media service may be limited according to a gateway or other device used by a user device to facilitate interfacing a user with the media service. The authentication may be achieved without directly assessing a trustworthiness of the user devices, and optionally, without requiring a user thereof to complete a sign-on operation.
