LOCATION-BASED PROFILES
First Claim
1. A computing device, comprising:
- one or more processors; and
one or more computer readable media to store instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to perform acts comprising;
obtaining location data associated with the computing device from at least one source;
determining a location of the computing device based on the location data;
receiving input to configure the computing device, the configuring including connecting the computing device to a network;
creating a profile based on the configuring, the profile associating the network with the location; and
storing the profile in the one or more computer readable media.

Abstract
A computing device may be used in multiple locations. One or more networks may be available at each of the multiple locations. A profile may be created and associated with at least some of the multiple locations. The profile may specify a configuration of the computing device, such as which network to connect to at a particular location. When the computing device is located in a location that has an associated profile, the profile may be used to configure the computing device, including connecting the computing device to at least one network that is available at the location. The profile associated with the location may include information for connecting the computing device to the at least one network.
