Abstract
The invention relates to remote services system that includes an automatic communication and security reconfiguration system that can reconfigure system components when communication back to the system servers has been disrupted. If the system detects a communication error related to configuration of a system component, the communication module obtains corrected data parameters and installs those parameters automatically on the system component. System communication parameters are stored in a secure database controlled by the service provider. Access to the database is controlled by a service provider web site.
